Course content and conversations

Called to Stewardship and Fellowship
Session 1

In this session, you will discover how God desires to fellowship with us is quite different from the typical practices of spiritual devotion. God fellowships with us through our work by extending His material world to us and giving us His principles of managing and stewarding its resources. Engaging in this work with Him is our calling. These fresh perspectives will revitalize your vision to work.

Private Property: The Cornerstone of Freedom
Session 2

In this session, we underscore the value that acquiring and managing private property has upon society. Socialist economic thinking currently undermines the capability of property ownership through the family and seeks to expand the reach of state control through economic and education policy. For this reason, recognizing the value of stewarding private property is critical to our society’s long-term success.

Exposing Assumptions
Session 3

Since what we think colors our perspective of reality and determines how we respond to people and situations, it is imperative that we allow an honest evaluation of our perspective to determine how it aligns with truth and reality. This session will expose how personal and culturally held assumptions can be identified and how examining the fruit of these assumptions helps us to assess whether they are worth holding on to or replaced.

The Economics of Obedience and Boundaries
Session 4

While growth is usually a sign of healthy discipline and hard work, God has also defined boundaries of obedience that provide safety and enable us to become strong within the context He has called us to flourish. God provides for us to grow where He has planted us, and with the people He intends for us to co-labor with.
