Active Generosity Podcast
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. Subscribe to our podcast newsletter via the link in our trailer show notes, where you'll also find further information about Stewardship. Together, let's discover the joy of active generosity.
