Sermons on Stewardship
Jesus calls us to a Resurrection Imagination, praying for courage and discernment on how to use your resources until the dream of a world where there are no poor among us is fulfilled.
Both the Biblical law and traditional Aboriginal lore tell us to “Care for Country and Country will care for you” but much of the time, profit and greed is put before caring for creation.
All creation waits impatiently for humanity to work and pray its way into the fullness of our identity in Christ, for only then will all creation be safe and free.
You cannot serve two masters; for a slave will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other.
Jesus calls us to be open to others, not shutting anyone out of our consciousness or care, and treating all as beloved neighbours.
It’s our place to be within, and part of, creation and to love it as God loves it, and to learn to be ready to stand with others in their place of need.

God will entrust us with more when we have proved trustworthy with what we have been given.
