For congregations following the lectionary, a new year has begun. For congregations preparing to close out the fiscal year, a new year is on the horizon. And for congregations practicing year-round stewardship or seeking to lift up the Bible’s teachings about possessions and money on a regular basis, the hunt for fresh and inspiring material is anything but new. Consider a new year’s gift to your congregation of The Stewardship Companion: Lectionary Resources for Preaching by David N. Mosser (Westminster John Knox, 2007). This handy volume offers a page or two of reflection on the weekly readings from the perspective of stewardship, including each week of the 3-year cycle of the Revised Common Lectionary.
