Stewardship is a never-ending adventure of managing God's personal resources entrusted to us for two Divine goals: the growth of the Kingdom of God, and the blessing of our personal lives. Stewardship entails our Time, Talent, and Treasure in a joy filled anticipation of God's goodness and grace that never ceases. Tithing is a concrete, personal spiritual discipline that signals the faith acceptance of God's Ownership & Lordship. It is the pragmatic passport that indicates the entrance into the Land of Stewardship, where the burdens and anxieties of life have been transferred into God's hands. Stewardship is a personal, living testimony to God's Goodness that never fails.

We realize that people are at different places in their walk with the Lord, so accordingly we offer many opportunities for individuals to discover how God wants to use our time, talent and treasure to advance His kingdom. Below you will find descriptions of the many areas of ministry at Hollywood Pres that would benefit from your support - the Lord has blessed you with specific talents and unique areas of interest... we pray that you will find one that seems designed just for you!
