What is “Stewardship” and “Purpose Driven Planning”?
Stewardship is the active and responsible management of God’s creation for God’s purpose. We are all called to be good stewards of what has been entrusted to us and we take this responsibility to heart. Our clients entrust us to help guide them with their stewardship plans.
We believe true stewardship begins with the question “What is the purpose of wealth?” We help clients realize the lasting impact their decisions today will have on what is important to them; not just leaving a legacy, but LIVING a legacy. We call this “Purpose Driven Planning.”
Whether planning for your children or grandchildren to have a debt free education, building a nest egg that can allow you to live the retirement of your dreams and not out-live your money, leaving a legacy to your children and your children’s children, blessing Kingdom focused ministries, and other organizations you care about, Steward Wealth Strategies is committed to serving our clients using Stewardship and Purpose Driven Planning.
