53: Generosity in Humility
Manage episode 421739727 series 3479351
"...pride is to be feared even when we do right actions, lest those things which are done in a praiseworthy manner be spoiled by the desire for praise itself."
I sought wisdom from Augustine. First, from Augustine’s book, On the Happy Life, published in 386 AD. And, then from his letter 118, written in 410 AD.
Reflection questions:
- How often are we confronted with the mountain of pride in how we carry out your fund development work?
- How can we lead with humility in our generosity?
These works have entered the public domain.
