Stewardship: What is the bottom line?

The bottom line is that God as Creator is the ultimate source of material wealth. He gave you life, talent, and ability. In so far as most people live faithful lives and practice fair dealing in their relationship with others, God is even the source of a healthy economic environment that allows business to flourish.

When you live your life as a faithful steward of God's creation, you recognize that God calls you into divine partnership. You have a role to play in safeguarding the material health of the Earth, the political and economic health of your society, and the spiritual health of your community, your family and yourself.
