- Read Exodus 35:20–22. What role does willingness and being “moved in your heart” have to do with generosity? Why does God care about the manner in which we give?
- Read Exodus 36:6–7. What is unique about this instance? Why do you think stories like this feel so rare today?
- What does this story show us about God’s heart for generosity?
- What makes you resistant or open to being generous? What is the line between invitation and manipulation?
- Does it matter what your attitude is when you give (if you’re joyful, hesitant, begrudging). Why or why not?
