Parable of the Shrewd Manager
Pastor Adam discusses the importance of stewarding our lives well for Christ by making eternal investments in things that truly matter, like people, rather than the temporary. It emphasizes that being a Christian should manifest excellence in all fields, and that small acts of faithfulness in various aspects of life—such as managing finances, time, gifts, and sharing the gospel—lead to growth in faith and character. Pastor Adam encourages the congregation to invest in eternal things, not to minimize small acts of faithfulness and to recognize Christ as the true treasure, highlighting that money reveals what we truly value. Pastor Adam concludes the sermon with a challenge to trust in God with all areas of life, including finances, urging consistent, generous giving as a reflection of our commitment to God's mission and the treasure of Christ above all else.
