On the eighth day of our Unwrapping Christmas devotional series, Guy Shafer, Associate Executive Pastor, Stewardship, shares his devotional titled “The Gift of Giving.” Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9:15, Guy reminds us that true generosity reflects an understanding that giving is not primarily a financial decision—it is a spiritual response to the grace we have received.
