Synopsis

When LaSalle Street Church in Chicago received an unexpected windfall, its leaders made the wild, counterintuitive decision to give $160,000 away to church members 500 each. They were simply told to go out and do good in God's world. What happened next was amazing. In Love Let Go readers learn how a church community was transformed by the startling truth that money can buy happiness so long as you spend it on others. Laura Sumner Truax and Amalya Campbell tell how this radical generosity experiment worked in their church, explore the connection of human flourishing to generosity, and offer tools to help us reclaim our giver identities and live generously to love and let go.
