Stewardship is …

Merry Christmas! Advent is over, but the Christmas Season has just begun! The weeks leading up to Christmas are extremely busy. We can get so distracted with lists and parties that it is easy to lose sight of the true meaning of the Advent and Christmas seasons. In all the hustle and bustle, as good Christian stewards, we are called to keep Christ in Christmas.

Give thanks to God, bless His name” (Psalm 100:4). Thanksgiving is the one holiday where everyone across our nation, regardless of our differences, gives thanks for our many blessings. How amazing would it be if everyone lived every day of their life like it was Thanksgiving? That is precisely what a faithful Christian steward is called to do.

How can we measure success in our stewardship efforts? In today’s culture success is often assumed by our worldly possessions. However, the success of anything can only be measured if there is an end goal.
