"Stewarding Your Life for God's Joy"

Nov 19, 2023    Rev. Charlie Holt

In this warm and thought-provoking message, Reverend Holt reflects on Jesus’ parable of the talents to explore what it truly means to steward our lives for the joy of God. Rather than focusing narrowly on tithes and time, he urges listeners to consider how they manage all that God has entrusted to them—resources, relationships, time, and abilities.


The sermon unpacks the parable with careful attention to its original context, clarifying that a “talent” was a vast unit of measure, not merely a skill. Each servant, Holt explains, was given a great sum—each according to their ability. The application is clear: God has generously entrusted each of us with things to cultivate, multiply, and offer back in faith.
