n this closing chapter of 1 Chronicles, King David offers one of the most powerful leadership lessons in Scripture—not through war or speeches, but through generous giving. As preparations for the Temple ramp up, David donates his personal treasure and invites the people to join him. Their response? Overflowing generosity.

But this isn’t just about gold and silver. It’s about heart posture. David’s prayer reminds us that everything belongs to God, and our ability to give is a gift in itself. His final moments as king focus on humility, gratitude, and setting up Solomon—and Israel—for lasting success.

In this episode, we explore:

  • What it means to give with joy and purpose
  • How leaders can inspire generosity through example
  • Why humility is essential in seasons of success
  • How preparing the next generation is one of the greatest acts of faith

Whether you're in a season of leadership, transition, or just wondering how to give more meaningfully—this chapter offers timeless, practical wisdom.
