Faith Inkubators Stewardship provides an opportunity for all ages to gather and grow as good stewards of their time, talents, and treasures. This resource is an effective and engaging holistic approach to Stewardship in the congregation, and includes a home connection with FAITH5.
This three-theme Stewardship resource covers six weeks. It can also be condensed into three weeks.
It can also be valuable as a resource toolbox by integrating components into your congregation’s existing Stewardship programming.
Included Faith Inkubators Stewardship themes:
Stewardship of Time
Time is a priceless currency. We can always make more money. We can never make more time. God calls us to invest our time in things that matter. Things that last. Things that will outlast our own lives. How are you spending/investing your time?
Stewardship of Talent
What is talent? Some think that word only applies to a small set of very special and gifted people—musicians, scholars, athletes. But everyone has gifts. Everyone has talents. Everyone has potential. If you are blessed—and you are—God is calling you to share those blessings with others. Don't bury your talents! In thanks to God, use your talents to make the world a better, more just and beautiful place.
Stewardship of Treasure
Media and advertising often preach money = success. The Bible teaches something different. Money alone is ultimately meaningless. One can be very rich in money, but very poor in joy, hope, and purpose. All that we have is a gift from God; our lives, our world, and our possessions are all gifts. Seeing everything as God’s - not ours - is a first step toward valuing and caring for the treasures God has given us and a powerful insight into true joy and meaning in life.
The Faith Inkubators Stewardship digital resource includes:

Small Group Theme Arts & Activities
Small groups interpret the theme through these engaging creative options. Bring Scripture to life through more traditional craft and service projects, or step out of the box with great options like clown-style sketches and interpretive movement!
Skits
Each of the three themes include three skit options to present the theme in an engaging way. Use children, parents, youth and adults, or even puppets to present the skits!
Bible Verse Songs
An NRSV Scripture passage forms the core of each theme. By turning the Scripture passage into a memorable song, your Bible becomes both a text book and a hymn book. This Scripture verbatim song is provided in a karaoke style video in your PowerPoint Presentations, in addition to sheet music you can print out for a live option.

SHARE your highs and lows
READ a Bible verse
TALK about how the Bible reading relates to your highs and lows
PRAY for one another’s highs and lows
BLESS one another
