How Should the Church use Money?

September 04, 2009


Some outsiders see the Church as being all about money. It's not hard to understand why when we build multi-million dollar buildings and have multi-million dollar budgets - not that these are wrong, but it's a lot of money we need to be good stewards of.

What does it mean to be a good steward of God's money? What do we spend it on?

Cornerstone Simi has felt convicted to give 50% of their money away to help those in need. What does Jesus want you to do with your money?

Several churches now spend lots of money on cool printed materials, musicians, smart lights & production - to get outsiders to come to church. What if we gave-away money to help the poor - would that also get outsiders to come to church?
