The Three Talents

Matthew 25:14-30

He gave talents to each according to their ability

An end-times parable of privilege & responsibility – don’t waste it

Three Biblical Principles of Stewardship

1) Stewardship – a relational responsibility of trust

“called his servants and entrusted his property”

We are assigned to care for His possessions (25:14-18)

2) Stewardship – a relational responsibility of accountability

“the master returned and settled accounts”

We are answerable for what He has entrusted (25:19-29)

3) Stewardship – a relational responsibility of service

“Well done, good & faithful…wicked, lazy servant”

We are appointed laborers called to action (25:21,23,26,30)
