Shrewd Stewards

Jesus celebrates the shrewdness of the dishonest manager. More specifically, that shrewdness was in using what he had to prepare for what was to come. For the Christian, that kind of shrewdness leads to serving for the poor and marginalized. Jesus moves on to the idea of stewardship, that we’re to serve our Master and gain a greater reward. What began with self-interest ends with loving Jesus (no one can serve two masters).
