Our Fall Stewardship
Emphasis, Convergence,
means moving toward unity. It
even describes how our eyes
work together to see a single
image rather than two.
Spiritually, God seeks for us to
converge on His mission – the
advancing Kingdom of Christ. It
is a dramatic description of our
opportunity to focus in, to come together, to find unity in Christ. It may
mean realignment, refined focus, or reconnecting with God in a whole
new way. Convergence means being intentional with our time, our
money, and our passions.
What are our 2014 annual budgeted operating expenses? $1,138,734.
How much is underwritten by gifts & pledges? $1,089,584. The balance
of the money comes from loose offerings, prior year pledge payments,
coffee donations, interest, building use fees, rental property, & nonpledged envelope giving.
Do we “pledge” to meet a “budget?” No. We give because God has
invited us to. To be a whole person in the image of God, you have a
spiritual need to give. As we converge our lives with God’s purposes, our
giving makes a real difference in the world. Dollars we commit translate
into ministry. It’s not so much giving “to” the church, as giving “through”
the church.
What is “stewardship?” Biblically, a steward is one who cares for
another’s property, finances, or household (Matthew 25:14-30). God has
called us to manage His work through this church. This involves
stewarding the preaching of the Gospel (Col. 1:24-28), supporting the
church financially (Acts 4:32-37), and ministering to the sick and needy
(1 Cor. 9:17). It’s more like giving “through” the church, rather than just
“to” the church.
What is a “tithe?” A tithe is 1/10th of your income or property given as
an offering to God (Lev. 27:30-32, Num. 18:21-32, Deut. 12:5-7). The
tithe was an expression of gratitude toward God, realizing God’s
ownership of everything in the earth. (Mal.3:8-12), often called “First
Fruits.” In the New Testament, believers are encouraged to be generous in
giving, not limited to a tithe of their incomes (Rom. 14:12, 1 Cor. 9:314, 16:1-3, 2 Cor. 8-9).
It’s a scary time for us right now. I’m not sure we can commit. What
should we do? First, pray. Of course no one can predict the future. Yet
God is still inviting us to TRUST and lean on Him and His grace as we
go. We are never more like God than when we are being generous.
I feel guilty coming to worship when we’re not giving as we should,
like sneaking into a movie without paying; what can you say that will
help? Guilt is the way the devil works. God is not a God of
condemnation. Regardless of your situation, Jesus came for you to
experience abundant life and freedom. The Truth will set you free. We
don’t come here for condemnation, but for liberation and healing. Many
of us have found that giving simply follows, as a result.
Okay. I’ll pray about it. But what do I do about tithing when I’m
“spiritually single” in my marriage? A marriage is a partnership. If
each spouse does not have control over a certain amount of money,
there is something wrong. So, if your spouse has a problem with you
tithing the money you make, that’s not win-win. If you tithe your
spouse’s income and they’re not here, that’s not win-win either. But, as
every financial planner will tell you, giving is a part of every healthy
portfolio.
Does God expect a new believer to give 10%? Get this: It’s not about
“expectations.” It’s about centering our lives on Christ, in response to
the great love and salvation He gives us. God doesn’t love us more or
less, based on our giving. What we need is a plan to get to where God
invites us to be. God may be inviting you to move toward a tithe, rather
than forcing anything on you. Calculate your giving. Is it a percentage
of your income? Consider stepping up a percentage or more, and see
what God does. Isn’t it great to be under grace and have time to figure
out a plan?
What will happen on Ingathering Sunday, Nov. 23rd? We will worship
with great music, worship, and preaching. Like last year, people will
bring their commitment cards to the altar during the offering. We will
celebrate the truth, that in Jesus, we are given to opportunity to
converge our lives with the living God and His purposes.
