Embracing Committed Stewardship

Luke 16:10-15

April 27, 2014 • Jeff Lyle

This message focuses on the blessings of being a giver and how it leads to the true riches of Kingdom living. Sooner or later every Christian must face the issue of what they do with their money. Jesus taught that God’s chief rival for our heart’s loyalty is the desire to gain wealth. The Lord went so far to say that, if you will live for God then you will abandon living for money and, if you live for money, you will not be able to live for God. The issues of sacrifice and proactive joyfulness in giving are addressed, and like any other topic in the bible, the listener must gauge whether he or she will believe God or something else. Blessings await those who trust God on this and this message points us in that direction.

One day, Jesus Christ caused a scene in a synagogue, threw the order of service out the window, never finished his sermon and set a woman free from nearly two decades of spiritual and physical slavery. Sounds exciting, but the people in charge had a fit about it and the interaction between them and Jesus reveals that the Son of God did not come to earth to preserve religious preferences. Jesus came to transform people. This message gives you the opportunity to discover whether his or her own personal policies are undercutting the purposes of God in our generation.

In 1990, billionaire Ted Turner received the Humanist of the Year Award from a group of atheists. The primary reason was because he had commented earlier that year to a group of reporters that “Christianity is a religion for losers.” We may be tempted to believe that the educated, successful wealthy people around us are not interested in spiritual truth. What is the Church of Jesus Christ doing to reach the elite?
