Extravagant Generosity Small Group Leader Guide The Heart of Giving

Built on Bishop Robert Schnase's groundbreaking book Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations, Extravagant Generosity succeeds where other programs fail.

The Leader Guide for Study is ideal for hosting Sunday school and other small groups during the program using the devotional book Practicing Extravagant Generosity.

Additional components in the program include the Program Leader Guide with CD-Rom, a DVD, and an overview timeline.

The Extravagant Generosity Kit is also available.
