Eye on the world: A deeper impetus for giving
In an article titled “Giving is way up, but for what reason?” The Christian Science Monitor observes that charitable giving in the US has unexpectedly rebounded to record levels. The Editorial Board remarks on a researcher’s finding that generosity largely depends not on material circumstance or self-serving motives, but “... on a person’s perception of ‘living in a world of abundance, blessing, gratitude, enjoyment, security, and sharing.’ ” So, to encourage an atmosphere of giving—financial and otherwise—“American culture needs to stop pounding home a message of scarcity, discontent, and insecurity.”
