Smart Stewards

In this powerful exploration of Luke 16:1-13, we delve into Jesus' parable of the Dishonest Steward. At first glance, this story seems to praise dishonesty, but it actually challenges us to be as shrewd in our spiritual lives as we are in worldly matters. The key lesson is not about deceit, but about using our resources wisely for God's kingdom. Just as the steward used money to secure his future, we're called to use our spiritual gifts and material blessings to build eternal relationships. This parable reminds us that we can't serve both God and wealth - we must choose our true master. It prompts us to examine how we're stewarding God's love in our lives and communities. Are we as clever and dedicated in spreading God's love as we are in pursuing worldly success? This message encourages us to be 'smart stewards' of God's love, using our creativity and resources to make a lasting impact for His kingdom.
