In the beginning, God had a plan\u2014a plan to create what did not already exist and fill it with his glory. Central to the divine enterprise were people created to look and act like God. They were to be managers of his property, administrators of his purposes, and inheritors of his portion. As such, their lives would only be fruitful and fulfilling when ordered rightly.<\/p>\n
But in its first generation, all of mankind\u2019s relationships became wrecked. Friends became enemies. Work became toil. Order was displaced by disorder and paradise was lost.<\/p>\n
God\u2019s Economy is a sermon series on biblical stewardship that explores how life works best according to God\u2019s design. It endeavors to recast a vision of life as rightly related to God, creation, and other people, and illuminates how a rightly ordered heart views time, talents, and treasures from an eternal perspective.<\/p>\n
God\u2019s purposes have not been arrested nor suspended. He is still sovereign; he is still in control; he still has purposes toward which his providence is directed. What remains is whether we will be willing participants with him by bringing all of life into submission under his gracious rule and acknowledging that we are not our own but belong to Christ, who gave himself up for us.<\/p>\n
