Belmont’s fall stewardship campaign will run from October 26 – November 23 during which our sermon series, worship services, and discipleship offering will consider “Our Money Story.”
“We all have a money story, whether we recognize it or not. Perhaps we are living from a story of fear or shame or guilt. Or a story that our actions won’t have an impact. Or a story that we don’t have enough. Where might God be speaking a new narrative into the limited ones we have told ourselves?
Often, to speak of money is to invite tension into the room. We want to avoid it. But we can reframe this. Money and possessions are one of the most common topics in scripture, and Jesus talked about money more than faith and prayer. Our money story, therefore, is a spiritual story….
The best stories captivate and transform us-they change how we live. This stewardship season, we invite you to remember, release, reimagine, and restore your money stories so that we can write the one God is begging us to live into.” (From a Sanctified Art Creative Team)
