Last Sunday was the start to Kingdom Economics; a six-week sermon series on biblical stewardship. When I use the word “economics” I’m not referring to financial economics but am using that word to describe the values, principles and systems that we live by as stewards in the kingdom of God. Stewardship in God’s kingdom is not relegated to one specific area of life but permeates every aspect of a disciple’s life. Sunday we will consider “The Stewardship of Life.” If we believe God owns everything (last week’s teaching) and all we have is from God, it is only logical to conclude our very lives belong to God. And if our lives belong to God we need to be good stewards of all that we do with our lives. From Matthew 25, the parable of the talents, we see principles that a good steward will follow as they manage the resources from the master. From 1 Corinthians 4 we know that a steward is to be found faithful. Matthew 25 answers the question, “What does it mean to be a faithful steward?” Join me Sunday as we consider stewardship as a way of life that encompasses all we are and do.

As part of this series, I’m inviting everyone who considers themselves to be part of Kure Beach FBC to make a commitment for this sermon series. Here is a link to that commitment card or you can fill out a paper version at service this Sunday. One of the commitments is to be in attendance for or to watch all 6 messages in this series.
