Selfindulgent persons rarely give. She was the niece of Oliver Smith, whose unique charities have been a blessing to many towns. Mr. Smith, who died at Hatfield, Mass., Dec. 22, 1845, left to the towns of Northampton, Hadley, Hatfield, Amherst, and Williamsburg, in the county of Hampshire, and Deerfield, Greenfield, and Whately, in the county of Franklin, about a million dollars to a Board of Trustees, to be used as follows: --To be set aside for sixty years from the time of his death, so as to double and treble itself, for an Agricultural School at Northampton, $30,000. In 1894, fortynine years after Mr. Smith died, this fund had become $190,801.15, so rapidly does interest accumulate. This will be used to purchase two farms, one a Pattern Farm, to become a model to all farmers; the other an Experimental Farm, to aid the Pattern Farm in the art and science of husbandry and agriculture. Buildings are to be erected on the grounds suitable for mechanics, and workshops for the manufacture of implements of husbandry of the most approved models. If the income will warrant it, tools for other trades may be manufactured. There is also to be a School of Industry on the farms for the benefit of the poor. The boys to be aided must be from the poorest in the town, are to receive a good common education, and be taught in agriculture or in some mechanic art in the shops on the premises. When twenty-one years of age they are to be loaned $200 each, and after paying interest for five years at five per cent are to receive the $200 as a gift, if they have proved themselves worthy. Three years before they are twenty-one, each is to to have ..

While it is interesting to see how men have built up fortunes, as a rule, through industry, saving, and great energy, it is even more interesting to see how those fortunes have been or may be used for the benefit of mankind. In a volume of this-size, of course, it is impossible to speak of but few out of many who have given generously of their wealth, both in this country and abroad. The book has been written with the hope that others may be incited to give through reading it, and may see the results of their giving in their lifetime. A sketch of George Peabody may be found in "Poor Boys who became Famous;" a sketch of Johns Hopkins in "How Success is Won."

In Gift and Giver, leading New Testament scholar Craig Keener takes a probing look at the various evangelical understandings of the role of the Holy Spirit in the church. He explores topics such as spiritual gifts, the fruit of the Spirit, the Spirit's power for evangelism, and hearing God's voice. His desire is for Christians to "work for consensus, or at least for unity in God's work despite our differences on secondary matters." Employing a helpful narrative approach and an ample number of stories, Keener enters into constructive dialogue with Pentecostals, moderates, and cessationists, all the while attempting to learn from each viewpoint. He seeks to bridge the gap between cessationists and Pentecostals/charismatics by urging all Christians to seek the Holy Spirit's empowerment. His irenic approach to this controversial issue has been endorsed by charismatics and non-charismatics alike. Sure to provoke helpful dialogue on a topic that has caused unfortunate divisions within the church, Gift and Giver will be a valuable addition to college and seminary courses on pneumatology. It will also be helpful to lay readers interested in a balanced discussion of spiritual gifts. This repackaged edition includes an updated preface and a substantive new afterword.

There are seven major giftings that all people, cities, regions and nations possess. They are listed in the Holy Bible, Book of Romans, Chapter Twelve. The fifth gifting - not that well-known by most people - is that of The Giver. The Giver marshalls resources to bring about the creation of new things: businesses, non-profits, institutions, schools, universities, innovations, products, services, and so on. Givers are blessed with The Birthing Anointing. They help make things happen; they breakthrough on many fronts. If you need help to make something happen, go see a Giver. Approximately one-seventh of all nations have the Giver gifting; including Israel, Philippines, Holland. A prominent city, San Jose, California, exemplifies this city-gift in action: for almost half of all new company venture financings - the financial birthing anointing - resides in San Jose, CA! Almost one billion persons globally possess this gift of Giver, but only a handful know that they have it by name. Givers learn through trial and error - and this book has been written for the purposes of minimizing those errors and the time it takes to optimize this gifting. When a Giver is operating functionally in their gifting, their sphere of authority increases and they begin to steward the Office of Giver. This office then changes the Church, Society, Marketplace, Governments and People Groups. The Foreword is written by one of the pioneers of the Gift and Office of Giver - Dr. John Avanzini, popular international author and speaker on Biblical Economics, Giving and Stewardship - who served as a mentor to the author. If you are an entrepreneur, a resourcer, a networker, a person inclined to help others through givingof all forms, then this volume is a must-have for you.
