Lesson 1 Church Administration Unit 10 Personal and Church Stewardship

There is an old joke about the Devil attacking a Baptist. His blows to the head of the Baptist were blocked by the helmet of salvation. The breast was protected by the breastplate of righteousness. His feet were shod with the readiness of the gospel. His waist was protected with the belt of truth. However, the Devil struck him in the wallet and killed him deader than a hammer. This joke speaks to the difficulty of teaching people to set aside a portion of their recourses to honor God and His work.
Stewardship is a crucial aspect of both individual and church life, reflecting a commitment to responsible management of resources and talents.
