Managing Me

Managing Me 2026

Bishop Terry L. Hill, Jr.Sunday, September 20, 20269am
📖 1CO.6.19-1CO.6.20
First Corinthians 6:19–20 reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and that we were bought with a price. God is the Owner, we are managers, and every part of life belongs under His direction. We are called to let the Holy Spirit guide our choices and to glorify God in body and spirit. Stewardship begins within us before it reaches our money, opportunities, relationships, or responsibilities.
Key Points
1.
God owns everything—including us—so we must live daily in the reality that we are not our own.
2.
The Holy Spirit lives in us as God’s regulator (quality control), guiding and guarding our choices.
3.
Because we were bought with a price, our responsibility is to glorify God in our bodies and in our spirit in everyday life.

Managing Me

📖 1CO.6.19-1CO.6.20
[19] What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? [20] For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Managing My Mouth

In this final week of the "Managing Me" series, we were called to take stewardship of our words through James 3:1–12. The message challenged us to see that spiritual maturity is revealed in the ability to control what we say, because the tongue—though small—sets direction like a bit in a horse’s mouth or a rudder on a ship, and it can also do real damage like a spark that starts a forest fire. We were warned that our words don’t just describe our lives; they help direct and shape them, and car…

Manage Your Mind

Bishop Terry L. Hill, Jr. · Oct 4, 2026

We were called to deeper stewardship by learning to manage ourselves before we try to manage what God places in our hands. From Philippians 2:1–8, we embraced that our minds function like an operating system—shaping our attitudes, assumptions, beliefs, intentions, and behaviors—and that faithful living requires a renewed way of thinking that matches God’s ownership of our lives. Philippians 2 shows Jesus as our template for a well-managed mind. We were challenged to think like Christ by reject…

Stir Up The Gift

Elder Gary Harvey · Sep 27, 2026

We were challenged to face the question God asks of every steward: “What did you do with what I gave you?” From 2 Timothy 1:6–7, we were reminded that stewardship is bigger than money—it includes our time, relationships, opportunities, influence, and the gifts God has entrusted to us. Faithfulness isn’t proven by busyness, applause, or visible activity, but by caring for the assignment God actually placed in our hands. We were called to recognize what God has entrusted to us and stop burying i…
