Active Generosity Podcast

Active Generosity Podcast
Podcast Description
Welcome to Active Generosity, Stewardship's brand new podcast. Join us for an exploration into the world of faithful and generous Christian stewardship.
I’m your host, Ruth Jackson. Each month I’ll be chatting to a Stewardship donor, partner or colleague about their journey of generosity, exploring why and how they give, the joys and challenges they’ve experienced along the way and what a difference generosity makes to their lives.
As you hear from both donors and leaders of charitable causes, our prayer is that you’ll learn something new, experience fresh perspectives and be encouraged and inspired to take the next step on your own generosity journey.
Along the way, you’ll also learn something about us and the myriad ways in which we support our donors and the many charities, churches and Christian workers who are our partners. Perhaps you do already know us as a donor but have no idea we may be supporting some of your favourite causes. Or, you’ve come to us for help as a church or charity leader or Christian worker but didn’t realise we can also support you in your personal giving. As you put the pieces of the Stewardship jigsaw together, we hope you’ll also be excited to discover our growing community of engaged givers and verified partners doing amazing work across God’s Kingdom.

Together, let’s discover the joy of active generosity.

In this episode of Active Generosity, we are joined by John Rinehart, Founder of Gospel Patrons and author of the book by the same name.
John discusses the journey he embarked on with his wife to become a global Christian and the pivotal conversation he had en route, which triggered his mission to inspire a new generation of Gospel patrons – Christians in business leadership who generously partner with those in the mission field.
Passionate in his belief that “the very heartbeat of God is generosity”, John also reflects on God’s call on us as Christians to be generous.
John’s favourite Bible verse on generosity:
“Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.” 2 Corinthians 9:6 (NIV)

How you can pray for John:
That he may continue to have wise stewardship over his resources and the message behind Gospel patrons.
