Summary

In this sermon, Michael Howarth speaks of how the Gospel dramatically reorients our priorities. It calls us to faithful stewardship of all God has given us, and to seek Him first in everything, including our money. The Gospel calls us beyond tithing, to a place where we give of our time, our money, our lives--ourselves--in an overflowing, continual, thankful response to God for the grace and mercy He has poured into in our lives.
