It shouldn’t be so hard to teach your congregation about financial stewardship. But often, it is. Many of them equate stewardship with giving, and have never thought more broadly about all they do with the resources God provides. So, they tune out when the topic of stewardship comes up.
Some are struggling with debt and experiencing guilt and shame over bad decisions or lifestyle choices. They need help, but don’t know where to turn.
Others are doing OK, even well-off. When the topic of stewardship comes up, they think, “I’m not in debt – so why would I need that?”
And, of course, you can teach what the Bible has to say about money from the stage. But, as with any key area of discipleship, it’s hard to know if you’re making any actual impact. Equipping your congregation to grow in stewardship requires both Biblical principles and practical tools, and happens best in a setting that promotes accountability.
