Life Reimagined: Financing the Mission

We continue our series on our journey of life reimagined as stewards of God. Recall our definition of stewardship: Stewardship is trusting in the promises of God, to deploy the resources of God, to accomplish the mission of God, for the glory of God. So far, we have laid the foundation of trusting in the promises of God because the promises enable us to deploy resources for the mission with the assurance that if we take care of God’s business, God will take care of ours. We looked at our mission and how God invites us into partnership with God on a mission that reflects and restores God’s Kingdom of love, peace, justice, kindness, grace, and mercy until Jesus comes again to bring His Kingdom to earth in full glory. Last Sunday, the message by Sister Eunice Johnson encouraged us to keep living into the mission no matter our age; God is not done until God brings us home. In this message, we will explore funding God’s mission with the money and material resources God has given us. People are very private when it comes to money. Money experiences have shaped our relationship with our money and material resources. Jesus invites us to focus on God’s mission as our top priority, to invest our money and material resources to fund the mission, and to trust God to supply our needs.
