Overflow: A Life Refreshed by Generosity - Softcover

- Walking in crisp mountain air.
- Sitting by the ocean with white foam at your feet.
- Taking a cool shower after a long run.
- Waking from a nap.

We’ve all experienced moments of refreshment, fleeting experiences that give new strength and energy. After the moments fade, we’re back to the daily grind. But a life refreshed? That’s a different story. What if we could enter each day reinvigorated by life’s adventure? God gives us the secret to energy, strength and joy. It’s life to the full, receiving the blessings and gifts of God and pouring them into others. It’s overflow – a life refreshed by generosity. Overflow is six sessions containing stories designed to help your church members be inspired to live a generous life. We call it Whole-Life Generosity™.
