Why Adopt Good $ense?
The Good $ense resources can be utilized
to teach, train and support and encourage your congregation
in the core value of biblical stewardship. The resources can
be used as their own ministry system or in conjunction with
other stewardship resources.
We believe deeply
that stewardship of financial resources lies at the heart
of Christian discipleship. The failure of the church to articulate
a biblical perspective on money and possessions yields the
day to the seductive messages of materialism that are rampant
in our culture. The failure to speak into the topic is an
act of self-marginalization by the church. Click here

significance of stewardship.

and freedom that brings
