"The Generous Life—The Surprising Secret to Personal Succes” with Ed Allen

You've probably heard the quote, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." When you choose to live a generous, giving life you start to change and so does the world around you.

Something incredible happens when giving becomes second nature rather than an obligation and doesn't expect anything in return. When you move from taking to giving, miracles happen.

As you make generosity a lifestyle, you'll realize you're not only loving life more, you're also creating a more selfless world--a better world for all of us.

Join us for this amazing five-week series with Ed Allen. (Some of the ideas in this series come from Adam Grant's best-selling book "Give and Take." We recommend you get it new from Amazon, used from Abe Books, or free from your nearest Library.) Topics to be covered include:

Givers, Takers and Other Kinds of People
The Amazing Thing About Generous Living
How to Be a Thoughtful Giver
The Astounding Thing About the Way the World Works
Three Shocking Truths About Giving From a Place of Plenty
