Dalla quarta di copertina

"An inspiring road map to experiencing the joy of giving."--Holt Lunsford, founder and chairman, Holt Lunsford Holdings


It can seem like all you ever hear these days is bad news. Yet in the midst of stories of communities in trouble are stories of love, reconciliation, and restoration. Through a variety of innovative programs and initiatives, and flying mostly under the national news radar, Christian business leaders are bringing hope to blighted urban communities in our greatest cities. A Disruptive Generosity shares their inspiring stories.

From Dallas to New York City, from London to Singapore, lives and communities are being changed through strategic stewardship. These stories will challenge you to find innovative ways to use your resources as God's hands and feet in a hurting world.

"Mac has gathered powerful testimonies of generosity from around the world. This is a must-read for anyone seeking to steward well all that God has entrusted to them."--David Wills, president emeritus, National Christian Foundation

"Much like his mentor Bob Buford did in his book Finishing Well, Mac has chosen well the stories of men and women whose humble response to God's prompting became a calling to live disruptively."--Greg Barnes, president and senior consultant, Halftime Talent Solutions
