Generosity: Ownership (Devan Bumstead) E3
Sunday Feb 15, 2026
Sunday Feb 15, 2026
In this message on generosity, we explore the tension between the American Dream's emphasis on ownership and the Kingdom of God's call to stewardship. Through a journey from Genesis to the Gospels, we discover that God owns it all: our homes, jobs, resources, even our very breath. We're not owners but stewards—caretakers of what belongs to God. This shift in perspective isn't about restriction but freedom, as we learn to hold things loosely and find our security not in possessions but in belonging to the Father. The sermon culminates with the powerful story of the woman who broke her alabaster jar, pouring out her most valuable possession on Jesus—a beautiful picture of radical surrender and the proper response to the gospel.
