ONE: Servants and Stewards
ONE: Servants and Stewards
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4:1-21
In the fourth chapter of Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, he reminds them that Christian leaders are not celebrities but servants of Christ and stewards of what belongs to God. Our calling is not to build our own reputation but to faithfully manage the message, mission, and resources God has entrusted to us. Faithfulness matters more than applause because ultimately it is the Lord who evaluates our lives and ministry. This creates an “audience of One” mindset where we seek God’s approval instead of chasing the praise of people or running from their criticism. When we remember that everything we have is a gift from God, humility becomes the natural posture of our lives and leadership.
