Stewardship of Love

Enrich our lives by ever widening circles of fellowship,

and show us your presence in those who differ most

from us, until our knowledge of your love is made

perfect in our love for all your children; through Jesus

Christ our Lord.

—Book of Common Prayer, Thanksgiving 7

Stewardship is the spiritual discipline of generously giving of all that we have and all that we are. Each month we con-sider a different aspect of our response to God’s gifts.

Next SundayDiscovery: Revelation—Prophecies That Provoke10am, 74 Trinity Place, 2nd Floor, Parish Hall Amy Kalmanofsky: “Cosmic Cataclysm and Human Response: A Study of Genesis 9 & 19.” In the book of Genesis the world is de-stroyed twice...almost. This class examines the human reaction to cataclysmic events such as the flood and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and compares the response of Noah’s sons with the response of Lot’s daughters to the cosmic upheaval both witnessed. We will consider the nature of their response (particularly in light of their gender), and whether the Bible condemns or condones their actions. Amy Kalmanofsky is an assistant professor of Bible at The Jewish Theological Seminary.
