Do you think how precious givers are? I think giving people are the
most... Who was it? McShane? We sang one of his songs. I think it was he
that said that you should so live your life so as to be missed when you
are gone. And there is nobody who is so missed as the giver.

And you think of Dorcas, Tabitha, when she died. You know what's sad to
say? There are some people within these four walls that if you were to
die right now, you wouldn't be missed a whole lot because you're a
taker. You're a depleter.

You're a giver. And your life is not heavily characterized by being a
giver. Givers are missed.

Givers impact this world more than anyone else. Givers. How precious
they are to the church.

This excerpt is from the full sermon, Takers and Givers, Stop Stealing,
Start Giving.
