About The Book Of Giving: How The God Who Gives Can Make
Review "Pierce Hibbs is a friend. He loves the Lord, and he understands well the English language. He is adept in the many ways in which we can communicate the gospel to one another. The present book treats 'giving' as a perspective from which we can view all of Scripture, for Scripture is the story of the greatest gift of all, the Father's gift of the Son to save us from sin and to fill us with his own gifts in the Spirit. The book is filled with great learning aids: Bible references, poetry, charts, reflection questions. Pierce wants us to take Scripture into our hearts and allow it to examine our lives in detail. This is a great devotional guide for believers, families, and couples." -John M. Frame, author of Systematic Theology and the Theology of Lordship series "An absolutely delightful,beautiful, and profound book, written simply and poetically. Receive the giftand rejoice." -Vern S. Poythress, author of The Mystery of the Trinity and Inthe Beginning Was the Word "A passing glance at this book's title, The Book of Giving, may suggest, 'Oh, another manual on giving....' But that is what this book most certainly is not! Rather, it is a thoughtful, biblical, and intentionally lyrical call to enter the divine circle of giving because, as the author notes, 'sometimes we need the truth to be lyrical for it to sink into our souls.' And because it is soul-penetrating, it is more practical than the erstwhile manuals because it invites us into the trinitarian orb of giving and the ongoing stewardship of all that we have. The book's practicality is enhanced by the (yes!) lyrical poem-prayers that conclude each section and the recommended exercises to promote growth in giving. Do you want to become a giver after God's heart? Spend time in the remarkable pages of this book." - R. Kent Hughes, Senior Pastor Emeritus of College Church in Wheaton. Former Visiting Professor of Pastoral Theology at Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia "I have read many books on giving. Even the best of them exhausted me, as they generally take more than they give. Enter Pierce Hibbs's The Book of Giving. What a gift! As in all his writing, Hibbs captures you with fresh and lively word-craft, illustrative wizardry, and heart-warming metaphor. But the deeper beauty of this book lies not in its artfulness, but in its burden-lifting, life-giving expression of biblical truth. Page after page unwraps profound theological insights, offering soul-nourishing delicacies with grace-filled usefulness. With one jaw-dropping glimpse after another at the practical relevance (yes!) of the Trinity, Hibbs exposes how and why the self-giving Triune God 'makes us givers by drawing us into his circle.' To read The Book of Giving is to get swept into this vivifying circle! But let me warn you. Don't read this book if you'd rather abide in your prison cell of self-interest and clutch your shackles of remorse. The Book of Giving may well demolish the chains, and ignite your soul with such a newfound grasp of Trinitarian self-giving, you will soar to new heights of giving and plummet new depths of joy." - Dr. David B. Garner, Academic Dean and Vice President of Global Ministries, Westminster Theological Seminary Product Description Giving changes everything. It will change your heart. And then it will change the world. That's not because being generous is "good." It's because God changes the world through giving. God so loved the world that he gave. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have a giving circle, and they've invited us into it. The more we give, the more we resemble the God who is always giving himself to us. Giving our time, our attention, our resources to others is what life is all about. In this book, you'll learn why and how. You'll be transformed into someone who finds joy in giving, and thus who finds joy in the very nature of God. The Book of Giving is an antidote for the selfishness that tears our world apart. God is restoring all things. And he's
