Week 4 — Passing the plate

A hearth's fire is passed by sharing the bread. This week the family practises generosity — around the table, across the street, and to the ones the world forgets.

God loves a cheerful giver

God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:7

Generosity at the hearth is cheer, not compulsion. A family that passes the plate with joy has a plate that keeps filling. The cheer is the whole difference — grumpy giving is a tax; happy giving is a hearth.
