How is stewardship inspired by the Bible? Father Andrew quotes several passages from the Bible that demonstrate that the concept of stewardship and its core theme of thanksgiving are deeply embedded in scripture. He references Psalm 50:14, Psalms 106:1 and 107:1, Psalm 118:4, and Sirach 51. He explains how our stewardship gifts, including money and time, become "holy" when they are precious and worthy and given to support the work of God. And he answers the question of how fixed assets can be a source of tithing in service of stewardship.  Father Andrew Kemberling is a parochial vicar of Immaculate Heart of Mary in Northglenn, Colorado. For 14 years he was pastor at St. Thomas More Parish in Centennial, CO. With Mila Glodava, Director of Communications and Stewardship, he wrote the book "Making Stewardship a Way of Life: A Complete Guide for Catholic Parishes" (published by Our Sunday Visitor, 2009). The parish received many awards for its pioneering embrace of stewardship as a touchstone of parish life.  Fr. Andrew was born in Tucson, Arizona, and joined the Benedictine order in 1985. He was ordained a priest in 1988.
