Walking with Jesus

Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost, Year B

For those of us who are focused on stewardship this month, today’s Gospel reading offers a lot of potential … potential for engagement, potential for exploring the meaning of generosity, and the potential for tying ourselves up in interpretive and linguistic knots!

Offertory Prayer

God of great blessing, but even greater lessons, remind us again who gives life and who receives it. Sometimes, like Job, we need to have our questioning answered with a lesson – we need to learn that we are not the ones in charge in the universe. The gifts we bring this morning are not a down payment toward future favor, but a token of a debt we will never be able to repay. May we gain wisdom in the giving, and may these gifts be blessed for your glory, not ours. In Christ, we pray. Amen. (Job 38:1-7, (34-41))
