Stewardship.


One of the Soul Care questions this week is "Consider your last ten purchases.  Did they represent good stewardship or not?  Why did you answer the way you did?"

I included the following statement in parentheses "questions about the use of money usually shut down conversations.  That should not be the case."

In the past when there have been questions about personal finances in the past, people have shared concerns with me about the personal nature of  these questions.

Here is my reason for asking these types of questions.  If finances is one of the most personal areas of life, shouldn't we be willing to talk about this topic with others to help ourselves and others grow.  These types of questions are very revealing.  Shouldn't we desire to grow in transparency.

Let's pray together that each of us would be wise, Godly stewards and that we would help others do the same.

Pastor Dave Rodgers
