Summary

Everything we have is a blessing from God, and how we handle our resources has a spiritual impact. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how to be a good steward of our resources, gifts, and talents. He shares some of the Bible’s promises surrounding money, and he corrects three common misconceptions about wealth and Christianity—that it’s unspiritual to be rich, everyone should share equally, and prosperity is an indicator of holiness. God gives each of us gifts and abilities, and we have the opportunity to use them to advance His Kingdom!

1:08.1	We've been working to a little study with the general theme of God's plan, God's promises, and God's people.
1:14.8	And the thesis is very simple, really, that God has a plan for every life.
