In this time of economic downturn churches too wish to cut down on fees that are unnecessary. Were called to be good stewards of the resources that will God has given us. If we are unfaithful with all the money He provides for us how can He rely on us with His genuine treasures? We know God as our provider so we must believe in Him and carry on the work given to us all albeit keeping in mind in which sometimes we tend to devote unnecessarily. There are certain areas that can be looked into.
When we think about evangelising the world, regarding the great commission we only think of far flung international locations like Africa along with India. We have a substantial mission field appropriate at our front door, our neighbourhood. When was it last that we went out and told each of our neighbours that Lord loved them a lot that He gave His only begotten son to get nailed to the cross for us. So focus on your own neighbours since they are the ones who need to be reached to further improve church advertising.
We are not all gifted in the area of fund, so it would be a wise decision to choose people who are named to financial stewardship to take care of the finances along with cut down on unnecessary spending.
As mentioned earlier we are not almost all gifted in all the locations. God has created each one of us for a various purpose and the quicker we zero in on that purpose and gifting the quicker we'll be able to get on track. Lord has also not known as us to do it almost all ourselves. Taking the help of other churches, ministries as well as organizations will not only partition the work and go ahead and take load off anyone or church nevertheless will also eliminate duplicating and rivalry as well as envy. Thus we are able to reach more people properly than just squabble over a few folks.
Another avenue available to us today could be the Internet and its great database. The world has become very reachable in this we no longer need to take long missionary journeys to reach people. We are able to attain many people within a couple of hours. Through our web sites and blogs individuals are able to listen to the Word of God in a few hours. All of this can be cost effective and gratifying!
