Rich Toward God
Rather than desiring what is not ours, we must steward our possessions to provide what others lack. Augustine said it like this: “The bellies of the poor are safer storehouses than our barns.” There are eternal consequences for how we steward our possessions.
The Treasury: Generous Stewardship
Are you rich? As Christians, we are all more wealthy than we think. Even if we do not have financial means, we have been entrusted with the greatest treasure of all: the gospel of Jesus Christ. This week concludes our sermon series on our core values at Mission Saint James. Fr. Ben Williams challenges us to take inventory of our treasury as we look at Jesus’ parable of the Talents. How we steward our finances indicates who we wish to please: the master or ourselves.
