Happy Monday!
This weekend brought a wonderful example of today’s word-of-the-week…
GENEROSITY
Becky and I met a man named Garrett Saturday morning. He heard from a friend about RICH’S RIDE and wanted to know more about the story behind the dream.
We spent less than an hour talking about our trip along the Mississippi River, some of the people we met, and a few of the incredible stories we encountered. Garrett asked a few questions, but mostly he just listened.
He asked how he could help. Then he wrote a check and paid for the new trailer that will soon sport the RICH’S RIDE logo. And he told us he felt honored to be part of our project.
That sort of humble generosity is all around us. While celebrities and hustlers fight for attention and publicity, a huge circle of kind, open-hearted people quietly do amazing work. We often miss them in the clutter and noise that dominates mass media focused on sound bites, tweets, and staged publicity efforts.
People like Garrett don’t care who receives credit, so they don’t seek the spotlight. They’re more interested in helping people, living God’s story, and using God’s blessings to bless others.
But they’re all around us. It’s a good week to pay attention, to follow their example, and to turn down the noise.
Have a great week.

I’m doing a big project to share a big dream, and I’d love to have you along.
