About this book

Andrew Murray considers how Christian faith should shape the possession and use of money, opening with Jesus’ judgment of the poor widow’s offering in Mark 12. He connects giving with the Holy Spirit’s work, God’s grace, and Christ’s poverty, calling readers to loosen money’s hold, give generously, and follow Christ in using earthly resources for God and others.
