Présentation de l'éditeur :

The question this book poses is key to understanding and practicing stewardship as a way of life. Author Dan Conway believes that when all is said and done we own nothing because we are possessed wholly and completely by “a good and gracious God.” Stewardship is one of the chief characteristics of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. This basic insight, among others, was essential to the stewardship message of Archbishop Thomas Murphy, to whom this book is dedicated. To clarify and exemplify his message, Conway offers insightful reflections, moving stories, and practical reflection questions for individual and group use. What Do I Own and What Owns Me? is invaluable for parish stewardship committees, parish counselors, pastoral ministers, and all who have a profound desire to live as disciples of Christ.
