God has called us to be good stewards of the gifts that God gives us. A steward is a manager of someone else s possessions. In the church, we are called to be good stewards of other s possessions which have been given to be used for the building of God s Kingdom.
All church members have a responsibility to work toward building up the congregation.
The use of financial resources is a way by which the church s work advances. In order to do the work of the church, we are called to be faithful workers in God s Kingdom. Our trust in God is central in our faith. We trust implicitly in God because of God s faithfulness and everlasting love for us. In a similar fashion, we are called as church members to build trust among the members to provide for the peace, unity, and purity of the church.
