Here's an idea: Send this list
of my favorite stewardship quotations to each family
in your church, ask them to choose one, then tell them you'll be
inviting them to tell you what it means during worship this week. Print them in the bulletin or post them
on the sanctuary walls. Then create an impromptu interview during the
announcements to talk about stewardship with your people.

Sympathy is two hearts tugging at the same load.
92. What is stewardship? An act of worship. A life
response to what God has done for us.
93. Good stewardship preaching is not encouraging
people to give it all way to prove their love or gain love. Good stewardship
preaching is helping people recognize what has been given first to them.
94. Love isn’t love
until it does the work of love - which is to do loving acts when the other
doesn't deserve it. - M. Scott Peck
95. Tithing - is a jumping off point.
96. Historical perspective of tithing - did
not imply that the other 90% is your own but what you have been given to
perform your vocation - 100% of what you have is God’s - the 10% went to the temple - Tony Campolo
97. A coach said, I don’t expect you to give more than 100 percent of what you’ve got! That’s what God expects of us 100 percent of our treasure.
98. A
little leaven and a little lovin’ - that’s the life of a Christian

100. According to the latest Nielsen Ratings, American teenagers are spending 27
hours and 53 minutes a week watching television. If they simply tithed a tenth
of their television hours and spend 2.8 hours a week in Christly service, we
could change the country. If their parents would join them, we could change the
world. - Rich Melheim

Prosperity is only an instrument to be used, not a deity to be worshipped. - Calvin Coolidge
