Proverbs 11:25 says, “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”
In today’s episode, Ash unpacks what it really means to live with an open hand — to offer your gifts, time, abilities and heart instead of holding everything tightly to yourself.

As Christmas gets busy and life feels full, it’s easy to slip into self-protection, exhaustion or waiting for others to “pour into” us first. But this verse flips that mindset. God invites us to be the kind of people who refresh others — not out of pressure, but out of faith, obedience and love.

In this episode, Ash explores:


Why generosity is more than money — it’s a posture of the heart


How making yourself available can bless people in ways you don’t expect


The trap of waiting for others to water you first


What to do when you’re spiritually tired or emotionally flat


How refreshing others often brings the refreshment your soul needed


Why Jesus is the ultimate picture of generosity


Practical ways to bless others this Christmas without burning out

If you’re feeling stretched, tired, or tempted to hold back, this conversation will help you rediscover the joy, lightness and spiritual refreshment that come from living generously.
