Christians are to be stewards who gladly acknowledge that they belong to God, that everything they have belongs to God, and that everything ultimately belongs to God. Stewards should value both work and Sabbath so that their time and energy are well managed. We believe that all spiritual gifts are a special grace of the Holy Spirit, given to us to serve the mission of Jesus. Because God has been generous to us, we seek to love and serve others as generous and wise stewards for God.
Something to consider: God gives us great opportunities.
