Preparing the Next Steward

Jonathan Edwards once said True legacy consists not of what we leave behind but of what we instill in others That's an important reminder especially when we think about money and inheritance All of us have a natural desire to provide for the people we love Whether it's our children grandchildren or others God has entrusted to our care we want to leave them in a better position than we were That's a good desire Proverbs says A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children But Scripture encourages us to think about inheritance as more than simply transferring [... more]
