What Moves You To Give a Hoot?

Have you been told, “You have to give”? The religion I grew up with was very emphatic about it. You’ve probably heard it has to be a certain percentage of your income and that, if you don’t give, God will not bless you.

Discover what moves you to give and give from your heart.
