Saturday, August 1, 2026 was... indescribable.
If I'm honest, I walked into this conference exhausted.
This has been one of the hardest seasons of my life. Just days ago, I buried/memorialized my mother. There was a moment before we opened the doors that I simply told God, "I don't have it. If this is going to happen, You're going to have to give me what I don't have."
He did.
We may not have filled every seat, but every person who walked through those doors was supposed to be there. The conversations, the tears, the laughter, the worship, the questions... there was such a tangible presence of God in the room that numbers stopped mattering.
Each speaker carried a piece of the same message without ever comparing notes.
💚 Alicia N. Fitts reminded us that stewardship begins with wholeness. If we're emotionally unhealthy, we'll often make unhealthy financial decisions. Stewardship is bigger than a budget.
💚 Angel B. Williams showed us what it looks like to try to juggle everything at once. As the balls began falling, she reminded us that good stewards know what to pick up, what to put down, and that we were never meant to carry everything.
💚 Gabriel C. Stovall challenged us to steward what we're actually responsible for. Every "yes" is also a "no" to something else, and not everything deserves our yes.
💚 Belinda Denise gave us a picture I'll never forget. There's a difference between lifting weight and carrying weight. Some things are meant to be lifted for a moment. Others become progressively heavier because we've carried them far longer than we were ever meant to.
