The Economy of God’s Generosity – Day 12: Light the World, Build the Kingdom (Year 2)

In a world that parades people across the media for things they said or did a decade ago, the stories Jesus shares about God’s generosity, forgiveness, and compassion are a completely foreign concept. In this video, I share three stories from Jesus that show us how to treat other people in today’s world.

How the Challenge Works

Step 1: Ask God each day, “What is one thing I can do to light the world and build the kingdom today?”

Step 2: ACT upon whatever He leads you to do. Go through the day EXPECTING for opportunities to arise.

Step 3: Document somewhere — in your private journal or on your favorite social media platform.

Step 4: Share! If you share publicly, please use our hash tags: #BuildTheKingdom and #LightTheWorldNow so I can cheer you on! If you’re going to be documenting privately, I recommend sharing your experience with a close friend or accountability partner. There is power in the sharing.

Are You Experiencing True Freedom?

It truly is alarming how many Christians don’t experience the freedom that the Bible speaks of (2 Cor. 3:17). Instead, they feel trapped by things in their lives; feeling like there is no way to move forward because of where they are or where they have been. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. It doesn’t matter where you’re at in life, or what you’re struggling with, you can find lasting freedom in Christ.

That’s why Christian authors and speakers, CJ and Shelley Hitz, have written Forgiveness Formula: Finding Lasting Freedom in Christ.” You’ll recognize Shelley from this year’s SheLovesGod.com Virtual Women’s Conference. This easy to read book combines real life stories with practical application steps to help people live life to the fullest through the power of forgiveness. The book is launching December 6th, 2011 and on that day only when you purchase your copy you will receive 19 bonus gifts worth over $100, and be entered in your chance to win the grand prize drawing of a Kindle Fire, Nook, or iPod Touch, or one of several other prize packs. I just went and grabbed my Kindle copy. 🙂

Here is what’s being said about “Forgiveness Formula”:

“Unlike so many Christian authors, CJ and Shelley Hitz write like real people. To read their book is to meet two very thoughtful new friends, who are both willing and able to help.” – Bart Campolo, Founder Mission Year

“Tragedy to triumph? Grief to gratitude? Shelley and CJ’s touching transparency fleshed out to me, ‘It’s possible! There is hope!'” -Drake Mariani, Founder MemLok Bible Memory System

He Shed a Thousand Drops for You

I’ve always been fascinated by the symbols God leaves in nature. While visiting Kayenta, Utah, I came upon an extraordinary tree that pointed me closer to Jesus Christ. This video shares insights I received on the power of the atonement to heal relationships, hearts and transform lives. I hope you enjoy it…
