One of the most liberating and convicting shifts you can make as a Christian entrepreneur is this: you don't own your business. God does. You manage it on His behalf.
This is stewardship. It reframes every financial decision, every hire, every pivot. Instead of asking "What do I want to do with this?" the question becomes "What does the Owner want done with His resources?"
Stewardship also reframes failure. If the business struggles, you're not a failure as a person — you're a manager navigating a difficult season. If it thrives, you don't get to take full credit.
Luke 16 makes a direct connection: how you handle small responsibilities determines what God entrusts to you next. Faithfulness in the details isn't small-minded — it's the prerequisite for greater assignment.
