In 2 Corinthians 8:1-7, we learn about a contrast between the church in Corinth and the Macedonian church. Corinth was known for its wealth and its excess, while the church in Macedonia was undergoing "a severe ordeal of affliction ... and extreme poverty." And yet, it was the Macedonian church that was generous when they heard there was a famine in Jerusalem. The wealth of Corinth didn't make it a generous church because generosity is not about having a surplus of money; generosity is a reflection of our spiritual condition, not our bank account.
