Committed to Christ: Six Steps to a Generous Life is a six-week stewardship program that presents giving as a lifelong journey in Christian discipleship. <br /><br />This Small Group Leader Guide contains everything a leader needs to organize and run a small group or Sunday school class in support of the program, including discussion questions, activities, and flexible session lengths and formats. <br /><br />After an introductory Sunday stressing the importance of commitment to Christ, the next six weeks are spent exploring six steps to a generous life: <br /><br />Prayer <br />Bible Reading <br />Worship <br />Witness <br />Financial Giving <br />Service <br /><br />With each step, participants are asked to assess prayerfully their own level of commitment and to consider increasing that commitment by one step. <br /><br />Equal emphasis is placed on each of the six steps, clearly communicating that this program is not simply about money, but rather cultivating a thankful heart that will lead us to giving more than we can ever imagine. <br /><br />“For a program that focuses on the totality of stewardship, there is none better.” <br />-Jim Polk, Senior Pastor, El Dorado First United Methodist Church, El Dorado AR
