Are you a generous person? Before you answer that question, you might want to read this book. Grip offers more tough questions than Sunday school answers, taking aim at the long-held assumptions of a lot of Christ followers when it comes to wealth, poverty, and generosity. Nudging the church forward with a clear challenge but without a trace of judgment or condescension, Grip is thoroughly biblical and thoughtfully sincere. Written in a simple conversational style, this book is a must-read for anyone who believes the church should be the most generous group of people on earth. To put his money where his mouth is, 100% of the author's profits go immediately to The 25 Group, a non-profit community started by Benton and his wife this past year. Dedicated to serving the global poor, The 25 Group takes the principles in Grip and puts them into action--feeding the hungry, providing clean drinking water for the thirsty, and bringing hope to some of our world's most marginalized citizens.
