Last weekend The Net celebrated it's 6-Month Anniversary. In that time we've never passed an offering plate or mentioned money - other than to tell people if they want to give they can drop their gift in an offering box on their way out. And in that same time - we've never lacked for anything.But, we're in a series called Q. And we're answering questions people have about the church, so we spent today talking about money and the church.
And yet, our approach was unusual - as most things at The Net are. And when it was all said and done, we did pass our first offering plate... but, we didn't collect anything - rather, we gave money away.
Our text for the message was from Matthew 25. It's a story Jesus tells about 3 servants who are called upon to invest wisely their master's money. And so, we put it out to the attenders of The Net today to reinvest and multiply the funds they were given to reach out into the community. Over the next couple of weeks, we hope their stories will come in for you to follow at 10BuckChallenge.com.
If you would like to hear the message on money from this weekend, you can do so by clicking here. We promise its painless and guilt-free... and you might just be a little surprised at how we are managing our funds at the church.
Enjoy and thanks for checking us out!
