Characteristics of a Faithful Steward

What are the characteristics of a good steward? Someone who budgets, saves, recycles? Shops at Goodwill or is one of those extreme couponers? It’s actually much simpler!

A good steward is someone who doesn’t see their own life, money, and possessions as their own. A faithful steward knows that everything they have belongs to God and manages it all accordingly.

So yes, that means they have a budget, savings, investments, and are minimizing their debt. They care for the earth, for others, and for furthering God’s Kingdom.

A faithful steward doesn’t order their life so they can spend whatever they want. They order their life so God can spend them however He wants.
