Holistic Stewardship

Dr. Zodhiates tells us he wrote this book after unsuccessfully searching far and wide in his 40,000 book library to find an adequate explanation of, what is commonly called the parable of the unjust steward. He says the actual label should be the parable of the unjust employer, as the employee was fired on hearsay. Life consists of words and works and one point made in this parable is the need to live in the now, to be an action oriented person.Holistic stewardship is taught, in that, we are to be effective in both tangible and unseen resources. The most significant resource we have is the knowledge of who Jesus Christ is, i.e., we are stewards of the mystery of God. He tells as, "As you look back upon your life, nothing will seem as important to you as the people you have won to Jesus Christ." All that God gives us, every resource is to be used with eternal purposes in mind.He points out that dependability in small things is essential to the kind of stewardship Jesus taught. "Character is revealed in little things," he writes. Life, cumulatively speaking, consists of doing a large number of small things well. It's all stewardship.
