Faithful in All God's House: Stewardship and the Christian Life

What should we do with what we are given? Its a question Christians ask. Given, that is, by God who is the author of life, and time, and talent, and all creation. Life is Gods gift. So is time, the form in which life passes from cradle to grave, from birth to judgment. How shall we use life and time through the fleeting hours that we have them? What will we do with the talents implanted in each of us by God? Why has He given each of us just that unique combination of skills and potential which makes every human being different from every other? How should we use the goods our efforts acquire? Is all that we earn ours to use as we please? If not, how much may we keep for ourselves? What do we owe the Lord, and our neighbor?
