“The Bucket List:”
November 6, 2011
This is the second sermon in our series “Extravagant Generosity: The Heart of Giving” in support of our annual stewardship campaign. Stewardship is NOT about given. It is about how to be good stewards of what God has given you. Your time, your talent, and yes your money. The question should never be about how much does the church want. It is always about what God is calling you to do.

“Then afterwards
I will pour out my spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams,
and your young men shall see visions. (Joel 2:28)
Old Men - Dream Dreams
Young Men - Shall See Visions
