More with Less

 
by Daniel D. Ketchum
  
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.”
Ephesians 3:20-21, NIV
 
Christians committed to biblical stewardship through missional churches are learning how to give more while they earn less, spend less, and live on less. They give more with less.
 
These faithful ones know that God is ABLE: Almighty, Bountiful, Limitless, and Eternal. He is able to do more. Immeasurably more. More than all we ask or imagine. Even more than amazing mission innovators like you who model massive imaginations! Everywhere and in every age, God enables more.
 
His power is working now. He Himself is working within us. No wonder we give Him glory! We honor Him in the church. We exalt Him in Christ Jesus. In fact, we rise to revere Him in all generations.
 
God can transform this global difficulty into a Kingdom opportunity. He can enable us to give more WEF, even with less income. More with less: it’s godly, biblical, and timely.
