There are many viewpoints on what it means for Christians to engage in healthy stewardship. Most basically, our stewardship is rooted in our thankfulness to God for the generous blessings that God has bestowed upon us.
At Epworth Chapel, we believe that God is a God of extravagant blessing! God’s bountiful goodness is exemplified in each of our lives through the blessings of health, family and friends, and the spiritual and material gifts that have come our way. Thus, our stewardship is an act of faith as we respond to God’s goodness in offering ourselves and some of what we have in service to others.
Each of our members at Epworth Chapel commits to supporting the church’s ministries through offering our time, talent, and treasures (money). The basic understanding of stewardship in the Bible is through the offering of the tithe. The concept of tithing originated in the Old Testament. The tithe was a requirement of the law in which all Israelites were to give 10 percent of everything they earned. (Leviticus 27:30; Numbers 81:26; Deuteronomy 14:24; 2 Chronicles 31:5)
