But it shall not be so among you. Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you will be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you will be the slave of all." Mark 10:42-44 Stewardship is an expression of our practical faith. It is not just about how we spend our money, but about how we spend our lives. We are called to spend our lives in service to others. Blessings and thanks to Shannon Davis and family who prayed for vocations last week.
