Lyle & Meghan Skillen:
"Money is a renewable resource, time is not."
We give because we get. There is a saying that we have come to believe is true in our lives. "Money is a renewable resource, time is
not."
The things that Meghan and I get from our membership in our church
far out weighs the money that we give. Our community worship,
taking meals together, fellowship and projects allow us to be members
of the body with Christ. The time we spend together and working for
the betterment of our corporate body, well there is no price that can
compare with those moments.
We must however be realists as to the how and why of the body of
Christ on earth. The corporate body needs help to survive, God does
his part and we need to do ours. That is why we give to St. Stephens
Church.
