I do believe in what I call the stewardship of influence as well as the stewardship of affluence. And that is you use whatever God gives you not for your own benefit, but use it to help people who have no benefit. And when you use whatever God gives you, he gives you more of it. When you use it well, he gives you more of it.

This one is going to be about deeds. It is not going to be about what does the church believe, but about what is the church doing.

Accidents are just incidents in God's good plan for you.
