Stewardship
Stewardship is often
defined as “giving”, but in reality, stewardship means “managing” the property
of another. When it comes to our
financial stewardship, we are managing the resources of God. When we manage (steward) for the Owner, we do
so according to His instructions and for His benefit. We are called to be good stewards.
Here is how we define,
“Stewardship”.
·
Stewardship
is the purposeful use of that part of God’s resources that come under our
control for the advancement of God’s priorities.
·
God’s
priorities are primarily discerned through the study of His Word, but can also
come from God’s unique direction for us as revealed by the Holy Spirit.
·
God’s
priorities, as revealed in Scripture, include giving to the organized church,
giving to others in need, providing for our families, for our enjoyment, and
more.
·
Since
every use of money eliminates other alternative uses, each steward (us) should
consider all of the positive ways God’s money can be deployed before making
financial decisions.
·
A
steward must be willing to change (financial) direction when prompted by the
Holy Spirit or by their deepened understanding of Scripture.
At Dan Hardt Financial
Services, we believe that good (Godly) stewardship is an obligation. Our experience shows that it’s also a great
opportunity, a spiritually-strengthening journey, and a great adventure.
