Theme: Abundance
Due date: March 1, 2019
Building from the writing of Walter Brueggemann and others, we believe that God created a world of abundance. If we share with others widely (and wisely), there can be enough for all. Some say Christ’s miracle at the feeding of the 5000 perhaps came about from the miracle of people sharing rather than hoarding the food they had. How have you experienced abundance, even in the face of hard times? How do you, your church, or small group live out a theology of abundance? When is it hard to practice a spirit of freedom with your possessions? What are your stories?
