About this listen

 A 2,000 year old sentence can change your understanding of fundraising forever. Professor Russell James III invites readers on a transformative journey through one of the New Testament’s most compelling passages on wealth and giving: 1 Timothy 6:17-19. As a simplified, yet richly detailed technical commentary, this work offers a fresh look at how the early church understood and approached the delicate topic of “those who are rich” and their capacity for meaningful generosity.

From the opening chapters, which highlight the characters, setting, and backstory of Paul’s fundraising instructions, to the climactic calls for believers to “lay hold” of genuine life through the enjoyment of their abundance in sharing and collecting beautiful good works, Dr. James delivers a thoroughly researched yet highly accessible commentary. Drawing parallels to the timeless hero's journey, he illustrates how the Biblical narrative resonates with our modern longing to be part of something that outlasts us.

Whether you’re an experienced fundraiser, a church leader, or a curious believer wanting to deepen your Biblical understanding of philanthropy, this book offers clarity, inspiration, and practical steps. You’ll gain insight into the many nuances behind words often only skimmed, discovering how Biblical generosity can transform not only the receiver’s life but the giver’s as well.
