Chapter 1. Understanding Stewardship

Stewardship in Christianity means taking care of the things that God has given us. It involves managing and using the resources and blessings that God has entrusted to us in a responsible and faithful way. As stewards, we have a duty to look after these gifts and use them wisely for God's purposes. This includes our time, money, talents, and the environment.

Being a good steward means being trustworthy and accountable for how we handle these resources. It also involves being generous in sharing what we have with others and using our gifts to serve God and others. Stewardship is a way of showing our love for God and acknowledging that everything we have ultimately belongs to Him. By being good stewards, we can honor God and make a positive impact on the world around us.
