As a mission sowing plan what are the seeds planted, and how is God’s abundance expected, each season of the church year? Knowing that “all times are God’s seasons,” what are the sowing and reaping that constitute Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost? Stewardship that knows and shows God’s mercy at each of these times reaps a harvest of generosity that will not fail come fall–or wither during the driest summer of low church attendance and lower giving.
