The Gospels and Film (and stewardship?)
Part of being a good steward is imersing yourself in the communication habits of the culture you live in and using those habits to tell the story of God's love for humanity. Bill Seaver (THE Web 2.0 guru for churches wanting to implement new media strategies) has just finished work with a company called Modern Parables. Their goal is to tell the story of Jesus and salvation through short films.
Thanks Bill for reminding us that it's our responsibility as stewards of the Good News to tell the world in such a way that they'll hear and have an opportunity to respond. (In the end, isn't that the ultimate goal anyway?)
Being good stewards, living as good stewards involves more than just what we do with our money. It's a way of living that says "God owns everything"--my money, talents, etc. It's very simply the only response we can have to the total sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross. Anything less cheapens God's grace.
