How often do you say "yes" to God in your daily life? Do you regularly share that yes with others? Generous living isn't just about putting money in the collection basket during Mass or always being the one who steps up to help out. According to bestselling Catholic author, speaker, blogger, and creator of CatholicMom.com Lisa M. Hendey, generous living is about consistently answering God's call to act through mission and loving service to others. In The Grace of Yes, Hendey shares eight spiritual virtues that have allowed her-and will help you-live generously and joyously say yes to God. With warmth and practical advice, Hendey helps you become more open to God's unique plan for your life through the virtues of belief, generativity, creativity, integrity, humility, vulnerability, saying no, and starting over. As she candidly reflects on her own faith journey, Hendey guides you toward your own path of generous giving. Each chapter includes questions for personal reflection and a prayer that invites you into a deeper relationship with God.
