Get the app40acts: The Lent Generosity ChallengeSample
Every generous act matters. Every moment of generosity moves your community forward, whether an inch or a mile. Imagine if you took the plunge and dedicated each of the next 40 days to generosity, no backing down, even when it gets tiring. Pledge today to living generously for the next 40 days and watch as you and your community transform in Christ.
When Jesus sent out the twelve disciples in Matthew 10 to proclaim the message that the kingdom has come, He tells them that the reason that they should be healing people, casting out demons and helping those in need is because, ‘Freely you have received; freely give.’
Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for us so that we could live eternally with Him. Let that sink in. This is the ultimate gift, the ultimate act of generosity.
God called us to live like Him, walking in the same way in which He walked. Throughout Jesus’ life, we see Him giving out of a place of love His time, His gifts, His teachings. Biblical generosity is more than just being kind; it is a true heart expression of the way that Christ first loved us

About this Plan
What if Lent was about giving out instead of giving up? This Bible plan is an adaptation of the full 40acts challenge. Our hope is that as you explore and practice biblical generosity in all areas of your life, you would experience its transformational impact. Each day contains a prompt for one act of generosity on that day's topic, with Sunday reflections summarising the theme of the acts that week.
