Ep 113- Boyd Bailey- The Power of Generosity

In this episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim sit down with Bible teacher and author Boyd Bailey to explore how generosity transforms both hearts and communities. Boyd shares stories from his own life, including how his grandmother’s prayers and hospitality left a lasting mark, and how people today are using their passions—like sailing or mentoring—to bless others. Together, they unpack how generosity is far more than money; it includes our time, talents, relationships, and even forgiveness.

The conversation highlights how gratitude fuels generosity and helps us shift from a mindset of scarcity to abundance. They discuss how churches can model a culture of giving, how leaders can inspire others through example, and how generosity creates a ripple effect that enriches both the giver and receiver. At its core, this episode calls us to live open-handed lives, reflecting God’s love through simple, intentional acts that leave a lasting impact.
