Finding Our Commonwealth: the Stewardship UU University Track

Stewardship as Transformational Ministry

• What resources do we have together to nurture our faith communities?
   
• How do we preserve our churches and reach out in bold new ways?
   
• How might we feel more secure in our personal and communal lives?
   
• What might our faith tell us about the meaning of true security?
   
• In what do we place our trust?

We believe that stewardship can be a transformative ministry to people's daily lives and that stewardship education is a ministry to the whole person. Churches that minister to the entirety of people's financial lives experience an authentic generosity among their members. These churches assist people in navigating a materialist culture and are then able to leave behind cajoling and coaxing people into giving.
