In today's sermon, Pastor Bob reflects on the parable of the talents from Matthew 25, highlighting its central theme of stewardship and the responsible management of resources entrusted to us by God. The parable tells the story of a man who, before going on a journey, gives his servants different amounts of gold according to their abilities. Two servants wisely invest their talents and earn a return, while the third, out of fear, buries his talent and fails to generate any return. Pastor Bob emphasizes that the real issue is not just about money, but about how we manage all that God has given us in anticipation of His return. Pastor Bob connects this teaching to John Wesley's rules for money, focusing on the importance of earning, saving, and investing wisely rather than hoarding wealth. The sermon introduces the "10-10-80 plan"—where 10% is given to God, 10% is saved, and 80% is used for living expenses. This framework encourages an attitude of abundance rather than scarcity and aligns with the biblical principle that everything belongs to God. Pastor Bob encourages the congregation to evaluate their spending, seek wisdom, reduce debt, and live simply to cultivate good stewardship habits. Ultimately, the message challenges listeners to consider how they will be found managing the resources God has given them when He returns, and to make intentional plans to be good and faithful servants.
