Stewardship

Luke 8:11 – “The seed is the word of God.” The plant begins as a seed — and everything in the church begins with the Word. “In the beginning ... the Word was with God” (John 1:1). “He saved us ... by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit” (Titus 3:5). “The word of our God will stand forever” (Is. 40:8). We never outgrow our need to hear the Word of God. We will never achieve such greatness that we don’t need the blessings of God’s Word. Rather, the Christian life is one of always striving to conform our lives to God’s Word — to live out the truth of our Baptisms, that we are God’s children by the power of His Word.
