The Georgianna Way: Commitment to Stewardship

I think you can blame much of the demise of the North American Christian church on the toxic influence of culture that has penetrated what was meant to be sacred. But not when it comes to this weeks core value...we (The Church) messed this one up on our own. Stewardship is never very hard for me to talk about because quite frankly its the easiest of all of Jesus commands for me to follow. Early in my Christian walk it was impressed on me that the principle of Stewardship applies to everything in the Kingdom of God...I own nothing! Its all on loan...it's a sacred trust! My gifts, my resources, my marriage, my kids, my job, my heart is all a sacred trust. And one day I believe I will have to stand before the Holy God that Nathan described last week and give an account for this trust He placed in me. The church has relegated stewardship to a dollars and cents impetus that we initiate, and missed the Biblical reality that it is ALL God's. The only thing I can control before death is the pre-purchase of my own urn for ashes. And even then it doesn't prevent my boys from selling it on eBay to fund a brothers weekend get-away. I believe we "live to give". I also believe the opportunities that surround us
are as numerous as the stars in the sky!
Join us Sunday as I share my passion for this core value.
