Financial Faithfulness

FINANCIAL FAITHFULNESS

08/30/2026; 1 Timothy 6:1-10; Craig Hurty; Christ Proclamation Church

Sermon Theme: Every believer is called to financial faithfulness, but our testimony is threatened by the desire for riches and the love of money. Forgiveness through Jesus and the gift of the Holy Spirit enables us to be content with what we have and control harmful desires. Therefore, we can live this out practically with our resources, doing God’s will and glorifying Him!
