All Things Come of Thee: The Heart of Biblical Stewardship and Service

This sermon explores the biblical foundation of stewardship, service, and gratitude through David's prayer in 1 Chronicles 29. The pastor emphasizes that everything we possess comes from God, and our giving is simply returning to Him what is already His. The message challenges believers to move from a mindset of ownership to one of stewardship, recognizing that we are caretakers of God's blessings rather than owners. True worship and service flow from hearts filled with humility and gratitude, understanding our unworthiness yet celebrating God's grace. The sermon culminates in preparing the congregation to vote on adding a deacon, framing this decision within the broader context that all believers are called to serve as deacons in spirit—serving God, the church, and the pastor with willing, joyful hearts.
