"Squandering the Father's Wealth On You" - Trinity 9 - August 9, 2020

Jesus commends the unjust/unrighteous steward to you because that steward scatters the master’s wealth to gain friends and a home when he is fired from his job. It’s smart, really. Everyone knows you should have a contingency plan if things don’t work out with your employer. Especially employees who are squandering the time, money, and assets should have backup plans, just in case.

But does that make the unjust steward a hero or a villain? Does Jesus want you to squander the blessings of Father? Should you waste your time on unimportant things? Should you abuse your job by “borrowing” paper and postage, checking Facebook, and pursuing interests on employer time? Should you store up the abundance God grants for a “rainy day” or use it immediately for the one in need?
