About the series

Navigating financial challenges.

I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.
Philippians 4:11

Money touches almost everything, and few subjects carry more worry. Rainy Days is a short, practical series about facing financial pressure with wisdom and faith. We taught it at New Hope across five Sundays in late summer 2022.

The messages cover contentment, consumerism, budgeting, planning a legacy, and leaving margin for generosity. The aim is not guilt but freedom. When we hold money with open hands and a clear plan, we can weather the rainy days and still give generously.
