Let a man so consider us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. (1 Corinthians 4:1 NKJV)
26the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. 27To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. (Colossians 1:26 – 27)
We now turn our attention to the discipline of stewardship.
By definition, stewardship is all about managing what God has blessed us with in ways that bring honor and glory to Him. Often this discipline focusses on the topic of financial resources, which is extremely important. However, we know that stewardship is a much broader concept. The passages above remind us that we are most importantly stewards of God’s glory revealed through Christ. This is an awesome responsibility!
Please read the passages above carefully and answer the question below.
Question:
What would you suggest are practical ways that we can be good stewards of the “riches of the glory” revealed in Jesus?
