Generous Living in Preparing to Die | Richard Garnett
Playback speed
Update - Richard has now graduated to glory. I'm so pleased we were able to release this before he died, he would be thrilled to hear about the impact it has already made. My dear friend Richard will any day now be graduating to glory, which is why I’ve brought this forward. It was only recorded a fortnight ago but things have progressed fast, and I’d love him to have the pleasure perhaps of listening to this and knowing it has blessed and challenged us before he breathes his last this side of the veil. His body is ravaged and weakened by years of battling cancer, but his spirit is strong, and his ebbing life is a radical challenge to all of us of what being generous might look like. It’s a powerful message.If what you listen to moves you to action, please write to Richard's family to tell him what you’ve done about it, [email protected], and I’d love you to cc me in as well for the encouragement if appropriate, simon[@]greatlakesoutreach.org.
