In an attempt to better understand our role as stewards, we can compare our positions as stewards to the function and responsibility assumed by the trustee of a trust. In the same manner as a trustee, a steward is a manager who has the latitude to make decisions in the best interest of the owner. As the trustee is a servant to the trust, the steward is a servant to God as the owner of all that the steward manages. Both the trustee and steward positions are full-time vocations. Being a steward is a whole life commitment, involving all that we are, and all that we possess, and all that we do. God, who has created and redeemed us, deserves our first and best.
