Description

Stewards Not Owners moves beyond traditional Christian financial teaching—which often emphasizes tithing 10% as a primary goal—and introduces readers to a transformative new approach: recognizing all our resources—our finances, time, skills, and relationships—as belonging fully to God while still entrusted to us for joyful and imaginative use.

Stewardship is often a term we hear sparingly, usually when our church community embarks on a building project. But Scripture offers deep insights into stewardship that stretch far beyond simply pledging a tenth of our income. In Stewards Not Owners, Dana and Bill Wichterman challenge followers of Christ to reconsider how they manage their resources, encouraging readers to view all their financial power as a means to further God’s kingdom purposes.

Instead of settling for merely donating 10% of your earnings, the Wichtermans invite you to discover how to engage 100% of your financial strengths and wealth-generating potential toward Kingdom-minded objectives.

Dana and Bill also cover vital stewardship topics, such as:

How to thoughtfully integrate your faith into every financial choice you make.

Understanding why God encourages saving wisely yet warns strongly against greedy hoarding.

Why openness, honesty, and transparency about finances matter greatly within Christian communities.

How committed Christians sometimes unintentionally invest in businesses and projects that undermine biblical values.

Creative strategies for leveraging your charitable giving toward the establishment of Christ-centered businesses.

Ways to effectively align your personal goals for wealth creation with your God-given mission of advancing His Kingdom.

Drawing from years of personal study, firsthand experiences, and meaningful relationships, Dana and Bill highlight twenty-four inspiring examples of real-life people who have wholeheartedly embraced radical, biblical stewardship.

Embracing stewardship doesn’t mean giving up joy, pleasure, or abundance; quite the opposite! Stewards Not Owners reveals how joyfully dedicating all of your financial resources to God can actually lead to greater satisfaction, meaningful abundance, and an eternally significant impact.
