This is the fourth week of our Lenten Series where we are examining the vows we made as United Methodist to support our church. However, these are 5 essential practices that will help anyone have a closer walk with Christ. We’ve examined our vow of prayers, presence, and service, and tonight we’ll look at the fourth way we can honor God and our church: our gifts. 1 Peter 4:10​ “Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.” Colossians 3: 23-24 “Whatever your task, put yourselves into it, as done for the Lord and not for your masters, since you know that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you serve the Lord Christ.”
