Stewardship
Stewardship has long been a sensitive topic in the Church. Because of abuses by certain give-to-me-to-get-for-yourself preachers, many legitimate, godly pastors avoid the topic of finances for fear of seeming money hungry. However, as any Bible-teaching pastor would know, God remains Lord over all the earth and over every area of our lives—including the money He entrusts to us.
As Christians, then, we must think carefully about our stewardship in ways that honour God. How much money should I give to God’s work? Does the concept of stewardship only relate to finances? Should I expect to enjoy the act of giving—or just do it as a duty? Allow our tools on stewardship to enlighten your mind and renew your attitude as you seek to become a godly giver.

How to Be a Godly Rebel
In this message, Pastor Chuck Swindoll teaches the role of government in God’s plan and explores subjects such as paying taxes, capital punishment, and when civil disobedience might be appropriate.
Ragged-Edge Faith and Reckless Generosity
Generosity is not as much an overflow of wealth as it is an overabundance of faith.
In Place of Drifting, Pursue!
Be bullish in your pursuit of life. Pursue the things you can change. Give your attention to the things that can be altered. And don’t do it for money!
Strengthening Your Grip on Money
God’s blessings are not for sale. He showers His gracious gifts—monetary and otherwise—on whomever He pleases. In fact, Paul wrote about this subject in the last chapter of his first letter to Timothy, explaining that God expects contentment and stewardship from His children.
Solomon in Living Colour
From 1 Kings, Pastor Chuck Swindoll examines the life of this theologian, scholar, administrator, diplomat, and architect. Investigate how Solomon’s studies and work led him to be a blessed leader of Israel who lived in peace with surrounding nations.
Reasons We Don't Learn Faith
It’s difficult to make sacrifices and give others our time, possessions, and money. But it’s in the giving we learn to rely on God instead of ourselves and it’s in the process we learn faith.
A Tried-and-True Plan That Still Works
While the New Testament does not include direct commands that God's people tithe, it is worth noting that we are never commanded to not tithe. We could even assume that tithing was so ingrained in the New Testament believers' lifestyles, nothing more needed to be written regarding it—though, under grace, giving a tithe was no longer an obligation but an appropriate starting point for all who wished to cultivate the habit of joyful generosity.
The Charming Joy of Grace Giving
When grace fuels us to forgive someone who has offended us, we abundantly release every hint of any offence. When grace is cultivated in our relationship with a friend, an abundance of bountiful freedom marks our friendship. The same bountiful abundance occurs when grace is the motivating factor prompting our giving. In other words, living by faith includes giving by grace.
