Prosocial?

Do Christians practice what they preach? Some do, some don't. According to Does Religious Belief Promote Prosociality? A Critical Examination, written by Luke W. Galen, they do. 

"There are numerous studies supporting that the association between religiosity and prosociality as conceptualized by greater charitable giving and social engagement such as volunteering and community participation." 

This article also suggests specific reasons why giving is usually seen in religious people: 

1. Participation in a religious group ("religiously-based social networking")
2. Religious institutions and rituals
3. Religious concepts
4. Desire for meaning, purpose, and wellbeing
5. Action is important to God
6. Morals 
7. Higher being is watching
8. More action means higher position

Though some of these reasonings are false, they are all important to be aware of. What prompts religious people, specifically Christians, to be proactive and prosocial?

This article was of specific interest to me because it asks the question "Do religious people help more than non-religious people?" I think this question is important to answer because as Christians, we should stand out. And if we aren't, something needs to change.
