Biblical stewardship is not just about tithing or money; at its core, it's about the worship and praise of God and serving God through our lives and vocations. The beginning of stewardship is found in Genesis 1:1. God is the creator and owner of all things. God is the creator of humans. And humans are made in the likeness of God. Our call is to live life in God's image.
Regardless of our particular pursuits or vocation, our treasure is what we think about, what we would like to attain. It's where our heart is. God asks us to give our hearts, our lives, our time, our talents and our possessions to God.
To carry out the mission and work of Second Presbyterian Church through initiation of pledging, overseeing the gathering of tithes and offerings from members, and administrative supervision of the expenditures of gathered resources.
