It’s a special Giving Tuesday episode and I’m joined by Brandon Davis, president of National Christian Foundation (NCF) Carolinas, to explore how generosity brings love, hope and healing in the aftermath of disasters like Hurricanes Helene and Milton. 

Brandon shares inspiring stories of resilience and practical ways to support impacted communities through giving and prayer, encouraging everyone to play a role in both immediate relief and long-term recovery.

 

 In this episode, we discuss: 

  • The transformative power of generosity

  • The role of generosity in supporting disaster relief and recovery

  • How NCF facilitates impactful giving

  • Integrating prayer and action in responding to crises

 

 Key Takeaways:

  • Generosity is a powerful expression of love and faith, as shown by NCF donors and so many others who have increased giving, sending more grants and funds to disaster relief.

  • Local non-profits and ministries have focused their mission into disaster recovery, clearing roads, housing volunteers, and more, aiding communities in Western North Carolina.

  • Prayer is central to impactful giving, inspiring donors to support with spiritual intent and sustained commitment. 

 

“Prepare the way with prayer. Sometimes we jump to doing without preparing the way with prayer. So, I have to remind myself and others around me constantly to prepare the way with prayer.”  – Brandon Davis

 

“My prayer is that [this episode] would inspire you and encourage you in your generous journey to impact the culture for God’s glory, whether that is in Western North Carolina, your church, your city, your community, your nation, or somewhere else in the world.”  – John Putnam
