Everything She Had

A Life That Matters

Twenty-Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, Year B

The first attribute of a life that matters that we will examine is generosity. Maybe this is an opportunity to refresh our call to stewardship. Stewardship isn’t something that should be heard only once a year and then when we are asking for a commitment to give. Generosity, as reflected in our gospel text this week, is about how we hold the stuff of this life lightly, even as we hold people and Christ tightly.

This short three-week worship series considers what the life of discipleship looks like. How do we grow as individuals and as a community to embrace faith and transformation? This series centers on three stances: giving generously, paying attention, and claiming whose we are. Following are some suggestions for music related to this worship series and these scripture passages.
