Synopsis
Excerpt from Studies in Stewardship
These Studies in Stewardship are issued as the result of an insistent appeal for a brief and practical course of study. They are written in the conviction that, if the Stewardship Revival is to lift the Church to a new and permanent level of spiritual life, it must be steered between the bald legalism, which can see in Christian Stewardship nothing larger than the tithe, and the sophistry of the really insincere man who is ready to acknowledge only with words that all that I have belongs to God. Of course, the Stewardship of the entire life must be the end of the vision, but some definite material acknowledgment, in the form of a separated proportion of income, is necessary, if Stewardship is to be more than sound. No more reasonable acknowledgment than the tithe can be found. The recent action of the government in connection with exempting from taxation a certain percentage of income, when given to religious or philanthropic objects, has made this clear. More over the tithe has a vital background in the Scrip tures, and it cannot be disregarded in experience.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This profound guide explores the historical development of a Christian Stewardship revival within the Methodist Episcopal Church. The author argues that the Stewardship Revival is a modern expression of an ancient Biblical principle, proposing that by acknowledging God's full ownership of all possessions and humanity's role as stewards of His bounty, individuals experience a rebirth of spiritual fervor. The author advocates for a tithe as one practical method of articulating acknowledgment, defining a tithe as reserving one-tenth of income in reverence, which has vital precedent in Scripture. While recognizing the Stewardship Revival may lift the Church to a new level of spiritual vibrancy, the author warns against a legalistic mindset that reduces Stewardship to simple tithing, emphasizing that genuine stewardship is a surrender of the heart, an expression of love for God and His Kingdom that transcends financial gestures. The book's insights are valuable for those seeking a deeper understanding of Christian Stewardship and its deep significance in modern Christian life.
