• Sermon Series Name: All Things New
• Message Title: Generosity Makes All Things Possible
• Short Summary: This message explores the transformative power of generosity rooted in a heart surrendered to God. Through biblical examples and real-life stories, we learn that true generosity is not about the amount given but the heart's posture. When we trust God with our resources, we step into His unshakable economy, where all things become possible.

Icebreaker Question

• Share a time when you received an unexpected act of kindness or generosity. How did it make you feel, and how did it influence your perspective on giving?

Review of the Previous Week’s "I Will" Statement

• Reflect on last week's commitment: I will give boldly because all things are possible through Jesus. Share an experience from this past week where you saw God work through your act of giving. How did it impact you or others?

Five Discussion Questions (Core Focus)

1. Reflecting on Generosity:
   • The message highlighted the story of the Philippian church's generosity despite their poverty (Philippians 4:14-19). How does this challenge your understanding of generosity?
   • Context: The Philippians gave out of their need, not abundance.
   • Life Application: Consider a time when you gave sacrificially. What motivated you, and how did it impact your faith?
2. Heart vs. Cash Flow:
   • The message emphasized that generosity is about "heart flow" rather than "cash flow." How do you see this principle at work in your life?
   • Context: Jesus taught that where your treasure is, there your heart will be also (Matthew 6:21).
   • Life Application: Identify an area where you can shift your focus from financial security to trusting God with your heart.
3. Experiencing God's Provision:
   • Share a time when you experienced God's provision in an unexpected way. How did it affect your trust in Him?
   • Context: The story of Matthew McCreary in the message (link to watch below) illustrates God's provision through community.
   • Life Application: How can you be more open to seeing God's provision in your daily life?
4. Contentment in Christ:
   • Paul learned to be content in all circumstances (Philippians 4:11-13). What does contentment look like for you, and how can it be cultivated?
   • Context: Contentment is found in Christ, not in material abundance.
   • Life Application: Identify one area where you struggle with contentment and commit to seeking Christ's strength in it.
5. Stepping into God's Economy:
   • The message invites us to move from the "fragile economy of me" to the "unshakable economy of God's kingdom." What steps can you take to live more generously?
   • Context: Generosity unlocks God's provision and aligns us with His kingdom purposes.
   • Life Application: What practical step can you take this week to demonstrate trust in God's provision?
