The God-given ability to make and to give things most liberally and beyond all human expectation. (Romans 12:8; 1 Corinthians 13:3)
Dislike emotional appeals, wants the facts
Ability to invest wisely
Set and achieve long-range goals
Use resources to get the most out of them
Work to aid those needy people who are worthy of assistance
Determines merits of a project before investing or getting others to invest

"A believer with the gift of giving has the capacity to give of his substance to the work of the Lord or to the people of God consistently, liberally, sacrificially, and with such wisdom and cheerfulness that others are encouraged and blessed."
