Prepare to do more by allowing God to expand your vision.He often enables us to do more that we thought possible. God is the true source of the “think big” idea. One way to “think big” is to consider using a stored resource.
Some ideas
Sale of Asset:
Money resulting from the sale of a boat, car, ATV, collection, etc.
Freedom from Debt:
After a loan is complete, the resources that were applied to that debt are now available for giving.
Delayed Expense:
Waiting to purchase a new home, car, etc.
Sacrifice:
Changing your lifestyle and/or priorities.
Additional Income:
Using your skills and talents, taking on additional work or delaying your retirement.
Gifts in Kind:
Donating specific services and/or materials either personally or through a business.
Income Producing Assets:
Income from rental property, or money from another income-producing asset.
Appreciated Asset:
Transfer stocks, real estate, etc. If your asset has increased in value since the purchase, there are tax advantages to transferring ownership and using it as a charitable donation.
