1) Opening Comments
a) Welcome
b) A Word of Praise for this church!
i) Thank you for being so faithful and responsive in your giving
ii) So many different stories are being told
iii) Story of a man and his wife on our Glendale campus named Geno and Crystal (With their permission)
(1) Just started coming at the beginning of the ''What If'' series
(a) Is this all we are going to talk about?
(b) He'd been wrestling with this whole ''church thing'' for a while
(c) Decided to stick around and listen
(d) He heard me speak about trusting God with your money.
(e) Felt guilty with the idea of putting God to the test
(2) But decided to ''risk it'' and put God to the test...

(b) Only thing he could give... Money set aside for a Monday Night Football Game and dinner with his wife
(c) Decided to trust God with it and determined to give it
(d) That week he came down with Pneumonia... ended up with $200 of doctor bills.
(e) Tempted to take the money from tithing... decided not to

(g) Which he did
