Two-thirds of funds that are unexpectedly received will be given away to others, according to the author's own research and several studies. That's a multiplication of generosity, for sure.
Generosity spins a global web, says Anderson. Jesus agreed: "Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." (Luke 8:38)
The book exams the universal principle of giving and the effects - immediate and ongoing - of being a generous person. Both donor and recipient receive extended benefits, especially if they continue the web of generosity.
You'll want to look around you and see how you can be an unexpected blessing - and live a life large with hope and gratitude. I recommend this one for its encouragement and for its research and practical push toward living a generous life - with your own time, energy, money, and relationships.
