Stewardship 101 for Smaller Congregations
Addressing stewardship in smaller congregations can be confusing, especially when things have either been running on “autopilot” for so long that the topic seems out of place, or because it’s never really been talked about and so the topic is too foreign or controversial. But stewardship is a discipleship practice that goes far beyond the pocketbook, affecting every facet of our lives as followers of Jesus!
This Zoom recording talks about practical ways to address stewardship in smaller congregations that are easy to implement, incremental, and bring a wholistic lens to the topic.
