How Will We Respond Together?

God called Moses by name from the burning bush.

Moses answered, “Here I am.”

Throughout our journey through Exodus, we have considered what it means to recognize holy ground, listen for God's voice, trust the next step, and follow when God opens a way.

But God's call is never only about where we are going.

Eventually, we must decide how we will respond.

Paul reminds us that there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; varieties of service, but the same Lord. Each of us has been given something to contribute, and those gifts are given “for the common good.”

That is where stewardship begins.

Not with a budget.

Not with a pledge card.

But with recognizing that our lives, abilities, resources, experiences, and opportunities are gifts from God—and asking how God might use them.

God has called us.

How will we respond together?
