A speaker argues that giving away all your money at once is poor stewardship. Instead, he says, God wants you to multiply wealth through investment so you can give more over time. He uses a $10 million example to show how exponential growth compounds your ability to help others.
Chapters
And then if you woke up with $10 million in your bank account tomorrow, what would you do? And those are always fun answers. Yeah, I've gotten everything from I'd go skydiving to I'd give it, I'd give it all away. And I'm the first to jump down their throat and ask them, well, are you giving everything you have away right now? Don't act like you're going to be some, like, saint now. First off, I think that would be very poor stewardship. If you just got $10 million and you gave it all away, you are not— that's not stewardship. Yeah, you may help somebody one time for a period of time, but you are called to multiply. We need to be looking at vehicles that we can put this money to work so it can continue to multiply, because that $10 million should be turned into $20 million, should be turned into $40 million, should be turned into $80 million, and it should continually multiply.
