If you attended the live MidAmerica Congregational Leaders conversation in November, you know how thought-provoking it was to explore The Changing Nature of Money with Rev. Sara Green of Stewardship for Us. For those who registered but couldn’t make it—or if you want to revisit the conversation—you can now access the recording!
👉 Watch here: The Changing Nature of Money
During this session, Rev. Sara Green guided us through some of the most pressing questions facing congregations today, including:
- What old stories about money might need rethinking?
- How can we embrace generosity, even when giving feels like it’s in decline?
- What tools, like asset mapping, might help us use resources more responsibly?
- Should we reconsider the role of buildings in our congregational life?
- How can we shift from a mindset of scarcity to one of interdependence and abundance?
This wasn’t about finding quick fixes, but about starting deeper conversations. Our time together offered plenty of food for thought and practical ideas for fostering stewardship that reflects our UU values.
If you registered for this event, we hope you’ll take some time to watch the recording and reflect on how these ideas might resonate in your congregation.

Rev. Sara Green is driven by a lifelong commitment to just stewardship that upholds core values. Hailing from New Orleans, Sara finds her spiritual practice grounded in embodiment, valuing the connection between the physical and the spiritual in ways that have practical implications for how we manage our money. Sara is particularly interested in working with the stories we have around money that excite our financial imagination.
