In our last episode, we saw the importance of having those congregation-level conversations about money. Of teaching Biblical principles and helping our people understand the concepts of God's ownership and our stewardship. And of separating that conversation from the one we usually have about funding church programs. We need to teach our congregations the "why" and the "what" of stewardship.
But when it comes to the "how", a different kind of conversation is required. Because the "how" varies according to a person's individual circumstances - it's not a one-size-fits-all conversation. The person who has no income, for example, gains nothing from a sermon about tithing.
The conversation about the "how" of stewardship, especially for those who are struggling financially, happens best in the context of a one-on-one coaching relationship. A relationship between a couple or an individual and a trained financial coach. These conversations can be intense. They're much more personal than a sermon to the congregation. And that's the strength of these discussions - they can be applied to an individual situation.
A well-rounded stewardship ministry includes both - the congregation-level conversations through pulpit teaching, and the one-on-one conversations through financial coaching. Join host James Lenhoff as he walks through the coaching relationship, highlighting best practices and potential pitfalls.
