What has God entrusted to you? Everything you have and all that you are is a gift from God to manage on His behalf. Your time, talent and treasure are resources the Lord has given you for this short life to use for His glory and His kingdom purposes. This is not a series on financial giving, though our use of money does reveal our hearts. This is a series on being good stewards – good managers – of every part of our lives. Come be encouraged by the manifold grace of God in your life and the privilege it is to use it – even your weaknesses and failures – for your Master.

Fully Human
"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth." John 1:14 Jesus was fully God and fully human. Right. Got it. Of the same divine essence as God the Father - uncreated;...

2. Know God’s Heart
Luke 15 presents a triple-parable of Jesus that moves from 100 sheep to 10 coins to 2 sons - from less value to greater value. In all three stories something precious is lost, and when it is found there is great rejoicing. These parables show us three expressions of...
