Stewardship and Faithfulness

On Day 16 of Journey to the Manger, we reflect on Luke 16, where Jesus teaches about faithfulness and stewardship through the parable of the shrewd manager. His words challenge us to use our resources wisely for God’s Kingdom and to trust Him above material wealth. Join us as we prepare our hearts to serve Him this Christmas.
