Stewardship is a biblical concept that's been around since the beginning of time. It's a way of thinking about how we make decisions and use our resources, and it's at the heart of what we believe as Christians.

When it comes to churches, stewardship is crucial. A church can't survive if it doesn't have the resources to care for its congregation and staff members.

That means every decision about how the church spends its money must consider whether or not this particular choice will help us fulfill the church’s mission.

In the book of Acts, we see that the church was able to spread throughout the world because of the generous contributions of the believers. They were willing to give their money, time, and resources; in return, God used them to accomplish His mission.

As a church, it's our responsibility to think through the same questions: what does it mean to be generous with our resources, and how can we accomplish our mission while doing so?

One of the best ways to do that is by taking a closer look at the concept of stewardship.

Maybe you're already familiar with the concept of stewardship, but to hear it from an entrepreneur's perspective is one thing.

Our guest, Rylee Meek, an entrepreneur, author, and speaker, will share his experience building a thriving business while following God's calling on his life. He will also lay out the four kingdom money principles that churches can use to find their true source of financial strength.

“God owns everything, including the businesses that we own. And then, ultimately, we are stewarding that in. And the number one thing that we should do as an act of worship is tithing.”
-Rylee Meek

For your church to thrive and grow, it must be rooted in strong roots of good stewardship. This means establishing systems in place that allow for accountability and transparency across all levels of leadership. We really can't stress enough how valuable this conversation is, and we hope you'll tune in!
