It\u2019s important for us to mirror God\u2019s loving generosity within our own families \u2013 not only sharing the\u00a0story<\/em>\u00a0of Jesus during the holiday season, but also encouraging our families to reflect the\u00a0intent<\/em>. When we imitate God\u2019s generosity in our own lives, we glorify God and encourage others to do the same.<\/p>\n So, here are 10 simple and practical ways you and your family can experience generosity together. It is our hope that you will set aside intentional, special time between now and the new year to focus on the needs of others and grow closer to each other through doing so.<\/p>\n Finally, whatever you choose to do to share generosity with your family this season, consider documenting it and hanging on your refrigerator. You could even create a scrapbook with pictures and memories from your gifts and service this year and every year after, so that, over time, you will have created a record of your family\u2019s growth in generosity that they can keep and share for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On the first Christmas \u2026 God gave us everything we will ever need.
