Within the
Giving for Life resources, we offer a talk/sermon for use by local
churches.
This talk recognizes that many church members' understanding of issues of
giving and generosity resembles a jigsaw. There may be a number of
pieces missing, and other places where different parts have
not been joined together.
|
The talk is accompanied by a leaflet for church members to follow,
and to take away for reflection. There are four key points - that :
- any reflection on giving starts with God, and his giving to us
- when we consider our own giving, it's often helpful to see it as a
journey
- our giving to church and charity gives fresh life, hope, and
enables God's mission in the world.
- that we are called to be generous in all of life - with our time,
skills, hospitality, and money, throughout our lives - at home, at
work, and in our communities.
Each of the points is accompanied by a question for reflection.
Downloads are available for the leaflet (colour,
local b&w printing),
the outline of the talk and an
accompanying PowerPoint presentation. Packs
of the leaflet can be ordered from the National
Stewardship Office, priced at £2 for 50 leaflets.
