Stewardship: A Christian Duty

Edwards’s theology of stewardship has been greatly overlooked by today’s church. The teaching that we are merely stewarding that which the Lord has lent us, is a vital and altogether beautiful discipline! We have bypassed it primarily because we don’t understand the spiritual duty expected to be enjoyed by us (especially of generosity to the poor) and have placed some of these teachings in the Old Testament box of stuff we don’t know what to do with. We tend to consign these to the ancient nation of Israel from our modern and developed position as nothing to do with today’s church whatsoever.
