There's no question that God has blessed Chip and Joanna Gaines greatly. But with 5 kids and multiple businesses, it's a wonder they have time to brush their teeth, let alone surprise unsuspecting fans with random acts of kindness.

Whether it's raising money for St. Jude, rebuilding homes for hurricane victims, or helping a couple adopt a child, these Christian celebrities never miss an opportunity to bless others.
Big or small, spreading kindness is par for the course for Chip and Joanna Gaines.
In fact, Chip Gaines even challenged the Magnolia company, as well as fans, to intentionally spread kindness by creating flyers made up of random acts of kindness anyone can do.
I challenged our people here at @magnolia to make kindness loud, and I’m asking y’all to do the same. Kindness is contagious, and it’s time we ALL change the conversation. You can read more about it here: https://t.co/kKZgkC2TPA #makeKINDNESSloud pic.twitter.com/XsLZlkPKdJ

Elyssa Snider was doing some shopping at Target when she fell victim to the undeniable pull of the Magnolia fall collection by Chip and Joanna Gaines.
Elyssa humorously sent out a Tweet about her unexpected splurge -- something that is a completely relatable moment for most Chip and Joanna fans.
"Goes to Target for one cooking utensil. Basically buys 90% of the Magnolia Home fall collection. Thanks a lot, Chip Gaines and Joanna Gaines," Elyssa wrote, tagging the Christian celebrities.

Folks started replying about their own similar experiences with the Magnolia products. But one reply, in particular, got everyone's attention!
The unexpected response came from Chip Gaines himself, who decided to bless Elyssa with a random act of kindness by paying for her Target purchases!
Alright.. how much did you spend?? This “spree” is on me! @AssistingChip let’s hook her up!! https://t.co/evb8G4lMpc

"Alright, how much did you spend?" Chip asked Elyssa on Twitter. "This 'spree' is on me!"
Chip then tagged his assistant, with the instructions, "let's hook her up!"

"It’s small gestures like these that make y’all attractive and show you’re using your success to try and live out the Gospel in my opinion," one fan responded.
"Awesome," wrote another. "Very spontaneous and generous Chip! The world needs more of this."
And yet another Twitter follower decided to follow Chip's lead, saying, "Your generosity is contagious. I’m going to go buy something there from your collection for each of my grown girls and tell them your kindness inspired me."
But Elyssa was the one now under the pressure of coming up with a response befitting THE Chip Gaines himself!
Which she did. . . flawlessly!
