Stewardship is an attitude and practice taught in the Bible
regarding all of one's possessions-time, money, abilities. But does
stewardship have a place in our world? If so, Why? This book brings
together two voices from two vastly different parts of the world to
talk about the subject. Bedru Hussein is from Ethiopia; Lynn Miller
from the United States. They are both Christian leaders, but their
exposure to and experiences with stewardship couldn't be at greater
extremes. Their cultures' standards of living, income levels,
frameworks, and histories are wildly different. Naturally, their
setting and circumstances affect what they think the Old and New
Testaments say about this issue. This book is for those Christians
who are hearing for the first time that their resources whatever their
size, do not ultimately belong to them. The book is for those
Christians who have heard that theme too often, who are exhausted by
hearing that they have too much. A group of stories concludes the
book. They are life experiences from churches and individuals (from
Belize, Indonesia, Paraguay, Ethiopia, and the U.S.) and show candidly
how stewardship is practiced in these particular places today.
