When Jesus tells the Parable of the Talents, He is preparing His disciples — and us — for life while we wait for His return. He is answering the question: How should we live until the end of the age?
His answer might surprise us.
The third servant isn’t condemned because he’s bad with money — or because he didn’t work hard enough. He’s condemned because he refuses to live in alignment with his master’s character and priorities.
And here’s the point:
Jesus is calling us to live in alignment with HIS.
Stewardship is more than finances. It’s more than generosity. It’s more than tithes or charitable giving.
Stewardship means everything entrusted to us belongs to God —
and we are meant to use it the way God would use it.
Your time.
Your relationships.
Your influence.
Your energy.
Your daily opportunities.
Even the breath in your lungs.
Every one of these is a resource God has placed in your hands — not to bury, not to hoard, and not to ignore — but to invest in love, justice, compassion, and truth.
This episode calls us into that deeper vision of stewardship:
not duty… but discipleship.
not fear… but formation.
not passivity… but purpose.
