1st Sunday of Advent — Luke 1:5-38

Stewardship Moment from Pastor William

Stewardship in the Gospel

The angel Gabriel has a message from God; there are going to be two miracle births (John and Jesus.) These two births are examples of God’s abundant provision to us.

Stewardship in our community

We are surrounded by other examples of God’s abundant provision: air we breathe, plants that cover the earth, engineering and medical talents, food so plentiful we discard anything slightly imperfect, and people in every shape, size and color.

Stewardship in practice

Take note of the abundance that surrounds you. God’s hand is in everything and everyone. This week, discover examples of God’s abundance in places apart from the usual: your family and friends, home life, or work environment. Then, give God thanks and ask for guidance in how you can honor that which God entrusts to your care.
