Kingdom Currency
Jeremy is taking us through a teaching series on Sunday mornings called "Kingdom Currency." The reading plan for this is posted on the church site (www.fourseasonschurch.org). The series will take three weeks. Money is usually not fun to talk about, but good stewardship can prove to be very rewarding and a source of joy. I'm sure J will post some discussion questions along the way, so check in periodically to see what's new.

As I was reading the Matthew passage, I was thinking, this could be taken 2 ways: to learn to be good stewards of our money, but to also make the most of our talents God has given us.
The readings seem to go from money to Spiritual things. How is this going to tie together?
It amazes me how we are faithful to trust the Lord in so many ways yet forfeit the blessing of trusting Him with our money. If all things are truly subject to Him, isn't He worthy of our trust? If we are willing to trust Christ for our eternal salvation, doesn't it just make sense to trust Him today? This principle applies to more than just financial stewardship. I know it is easier said than done, but we need to realize that our eternal, abundant life begins not when we die, but when we believe.
Just a money thought I always try to tell myself...
The Lord can only fill an open hand!
Today we moved our church's building fund money into a new account. While that isn't really any interesting news, seeing the amount we have saved did remind me to be thankful. Thankful to God and thankful for a generous congregation.
God, You are generous and You see the faithfulness of Your people. You have blessed us and in Your time You will prosper us. For this I give thanks.
