Stewardship Challenges
“You shall not carve idols for yourselves in the shape of anything…”
- EXODUS 20:4A
How many “gods” do you put before God? “Idols” do not always take
the shape of physical things, things we can touch and feel. Those are
easy to recognize. Many times they take the form of things that challenge our Stewardship and are much harder to spot - pride, power,
ego, comfort or health.
