GOSPEL IDENTITY AS A STEWARD
The essence of stewardship is finding one’s place in God’s economy of all things. Responsibility through stewardship is to join with the Son, in the power of the Spirit, to fulfill God’s purpose in creation and redemption. Biblical stewardship is holistic and missional, touching all areas of life and employing every legitimate vocation in service to Christ. This is what it means to make the kingdom of God visible and tangible to the world. When the church embodies its future hope of redemption, it cooperates with God’s work of renewal in the world, enacting its responsibilities in such a way that social shalom is repaired and the message of salvation is preached.
This sermon is based on the following passage of scripture:
