"When the church embraces the responsibility of living as faith managers of God's vast resources [as Psalm 24:1 teaches], the community of faith will prosper."
So begins this practical and theological study of stewardship, both in the context of the African-American church tradition and beyond. After all, a systematic approach to stewardship undergirds the ministry and mission of the church universal.
A stewardship consultant, Amerson draws upon his experience to help churches
- develop a theology of generosity;
- define stewardship leadership roles;
- celebrate the offering each week; and
- establish endowment giving.
