Summary

Money carries so much weight in our lives, but this weekend’s message reminded us where our trust belongs. In this message, Pastor Andy shared a simple, freeing truth: everything we have already belongs to God. He is the owner, and we are trusted stewards. Money is not the goal or the problem. It is a resource God created and a way we worship him through how we use it. In Matthew 25, Jesus tells a story of servants entrusted with their master’s money. The servant who used what he was given faithfully was rewarded, not because the money was his, but because he honored his master. God invites us into that same trust today. He places resources in our hands and calls us to use them with his purposes in mind. As we work hard, plan wisely, and hold everything with open hands, we learn the heart of this message. Trust God over money, and use what he gives for what matters most.
