"We’re Scared Aren’t We" Acts 4:23-31

Spirit-Led Generosity: Living with Open Hands

In this week’s Echo Church Small Group Recap, Pastor Da’Mar unpacks his message on Spirit-Led Generosity — a powerful reminder that everything we have belongs to God. Together, we explore what it means to pursue unity in the Spirit, to recognize that none of our possessions are truly our own, and to embrace a life of open-handed surrender. Pastor Da’Mar breaks down the three areas where God often calls us to be generous: Time — giving ourselves to others and to the Kingdom. Talent — using our skills, wisdom, and experiences to bless others. Treasure — being willing to share the resources God has entrusted to us. We close with questions for reflection: • What do you have an abundance of? • Who is God asking you to bless? • How can you live more surrendered to the Holy Spirit? This short recap is designed to equip our sermon-based small groups with a strong launching point for conversation. Thanks for joining us — we’ll see you next week!
