Session 3 Stewardship and Vocational IntegrityStewardship and Vocational IntegritySmith (2011) states:If each person is of inestimable worth, and, further, if we can ask how each person can flourish, Session 3 Stewardship and Vocational IntegrityStewardship and Vocational IntegritySmith (2011) states:If each person is of inestimable worth, and, further, if we can ask how each person can flourish, it naturally follows that we recognize all of this requires intentionality: we need to ask, what can we do to be good stewards of our lives, of the gifts, talents and opportunities that God gives to us? (p. 23)To be a good steward means to wisely use the resources you have been given, in whatever form they come. It requires vocational integrity by which you carry out your work for the Lord, whether that be in a current profession or as a student in preparation for God’s vocational calling on your life. This vocational integrity is evident through excellence, truth, diligence, generosity, and Sabbath (Smith, 2011).Assignment Requirements:After reading Chapters 1 and 5 in Courage and Calling, write a reflection paper that examines your previous assumptions about stewardship and reflects on what you now think and know about wise stewardship and vocational integrity.
