SUMMARY:Next Church Roundtable Discussion: Politics and the Pulpit
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nLEARN MORE About Roundtable Conversations with NEXT Church\nTuesday\, June 10\, 2025\nfrom 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM\nvia Zoom\nGrace Presbytery was invited to sponsor a Next Church national Roundtable Conversation on Politics and the Pulpit. What are the rules and regulations about “political activity” in churches or religious organizations? Is preaching on election topics okay? What about holding a voter registration event or driving folks to the polls? Join leaders from Texas Impact for a practical\, action-oriented conversation about ways churches can play a role in democracy\, without risking their nonprofit status or their credibility. Learn about the “Faith Votes” model\, find toolkits and resources\, hear stories of successful faith-based democracy-strengthening programs…and make your plan to step into the public square with confidence! Leaders for all states and contexts are encouraged to attend.

Josh Kerr\, Ministry Relations Officer with the Presbyterian Foundation\, presented a new vision of stewardship and generosity in Grace Presbytery. In our work and witness as Christ’s church together\, we are seeking to equip churches with the tools needed to grow a culture of generosity\, grow in our connectional church relationships\, and strengthen funding for local and regional ministry. The plan to implement our vision includes: listening sessions\, financial health analysis\, education with experts\, regional opportunities\, and local church support. We are excited to announce that the first phase of our shared vision begins now!  \nYou are invited! Please join us for an upcoming Stewardship and Generosity Listening Session \nThe first phase of our plan calls for listening sessions focused on stewardship goals\, challenges\, and practical ideas for churches in different contexts.

Upcoming listening sessions will include both in-person and Zoom gatherings; some are regional and some are presbytery-wide. \nWho should attend a listening session?\nWe encourage those who are involved in the financial health of congregations to join us at a regional listening session. That might be members of your session\, clerks of session\, church treasurers\, pastoral leadership\, or stewardship and finance committee members. As we share this vision and work together\, we hope to engage with as many congregations as possible. \nFinancial Health Assessments\nThe first phase of our plan also invites churches to complete a Financial Health Assessment\, a tool provided by the Presbyterian Foundation to help congregations better understand their church’s financial health.
