Thank you for reviewing my personal contact information through The Orchard Foundation. It would be a joy to serve you in completing a planned gift that would be a legacy to your family and would make an impact for kingdom ministry.    It’s not the amount of money possessed or given that defines stewardship. True stewardship is recognizing that everything comes from God! When a decision is made about how and where financial resources are invested or disbursed, it reflects back on our view of the One who gave it to us. It reveals the essence of our relationship with Him. It has the potential to make a current impact and touch others beyond our lifetime. True stewardship, thus, is planning intentionally how to serve God and others through the gifts and graces that God has brought as blessings in our own lives.    Often we get caught up in various products and documents; sometimes even in the types of investments and technical issues. Others equate ‘tithing’ and giving with stewardship. These are not the real focus of stewardship. They are the by-products of effective stewardship. At its core, true stewardship focuses on how we handle and use those resources and reveals the attitude in our heart toward the resources God has given us. Stewardship is spiritual before it is mechanical. That is why Jesus instructed us: “Store your treasures in heaven, where they cannot be destroyed by moth or rust and where thieves cannot break in and steal. Your heart will be where your treasure is.” (Matt. 6:20-21).

In His service and yours,
Steph
