Miller, Lynn A.

Firstfruits living : giving God our best / Lynn A. Miller ; foreword by James M. Lapp. - Scottdale, Pa. : Herald Press, �1991. - 1 online resource (95 pages) : portrait

The trouble with money -- A sign of ownership -- The 21.73 -- A sign of the covenant -- Dreams dreamed and visions seen -- Christ, God's firstfruits offering for us -- A sign of the promise, a pledge of the future -- God's engagement ring for us -- The rabbi's gift -- The firstfruits offering and everything else -- The barefoot people -- Defending against robbery on the high seas -- Living as signs of the coming kingdom.

God calls us to firstfruits living. This means returning to God the best part of God's gifts to us. Giving God the firstfruits of our income, our time, our entire lives, we spread God's new way through society like yeast transforms dough.
