STEWARDSHIP CORNER
“And my God will supply every need of
yours..” – Phillipians 4:19
God really does provide for those that
are grateful and generous. This is very
difficult for people that don’t live a
stewardship lifestyle to believe. People
are skeptical and say it’s just
coincidence. If you are skeptical, try
living a stewardship lifestyle for just
one month – be generous with your
gifts of time, talent and treasure and
see how God provides for your needs.
