Why an annual review?
If we only 'do stewardship' when money is tight or problems need solving then we connect our money talk with money worries. Good giving will solve problems but the language of gratitude and celebration, obedience and generosity, ministry and mission must shape our money talk. The annual review can celebrate our achievements and remind us that God's vision is greater than ours and that he can always use our greater generosity. We review our changing financial circumstance. The annual review challenges people to review their giving, to ensure that ministry is properly resourced and finances not diminished by inflation.
