What if some of what we call “generosity” is actually driven by fear, guilt, or a need to be needed?
In this message, When Helping Hurts, we look at the biblical balance between godly generosity and unhealthy giving rooted in co-dependency. Using Ruth 2:18 (NIV), we see a powerful but often overlooked detail: Ruth eats until she is satisfied first—then gives the rest to Naomi.
That order matters.
Ruth teaches us a timeless principle:
👉 You cannot give what you do not have.
👉 Wise generosity begins with faithful stewardship of your own life.
This message confronts two dangerous extremes:
• Giving ourselves into the poorhouse because we don’t know how to say no
• Becoming stingy or hard-hearted in the name of “wisdom”
Jesus calls us to something better—a “good eye” that is generous without being driven, compassionate without enabling, and open-handed without losing discernment.
If you’ve ever:
• Felt guilty for setting boundaries
• Confused generosity with rescuing
• Been exhausted from always being the one who helps
• Wondered how to give without hurting yourself or others
—this message is for you.
📖 Key Scripture: Ruth 2:18 (NIV)
🎯 Core theme: Healthy generosity flows from wholeness, not compulsion.
👉 Watch to the end, reflect prayerfully, and let the Word reset how you see giving, helping, and stewardship.
