Kingdom Stewardship: Occasional Papers Prepared by the Lausanne Resource Mobilization Working Group for Cape Town 2010

At the beginning of the twenty-first century, an unprecedented opportunity exists to disciple the church in the fundamental biblical pattern of holistic stewardship.'We, at the Resource Mobilization Working Group, believe that a proper understanding of the scope of God's mission places a stewardship responsibility on every Christian to join with the Son in the power of the Spirit to fulfill the Father's purpose in creation and redemption. At its most basic level, biblical stewardship is holistic and missional, touching every area of life and employing every legitimate vocation in service to Jesus Christ, "the firstborn over all creation" and "the head of...the church" (Col. 1:15-20).'--Ram Gidoomal CBEChairman, Lausanne Resource Mobilization Working GroupDeputy Chairman, Lausanne International Board of DirectorsAbout the Author: Resource Mobilization Working GroupThe Resource Mobilization Working Group (RMWG) was initiated under the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization (LCWE) to provide vision for a global culture of generosity and effective stewardship of God's resources to support world evangelization.
