What is the “good life”? People have explored that question for millennia. It can be argued that Jesus tackles it as well. All of Scripture points to the truth that God is the owner of everything—all we have belongs to God! He simply entrusts it to us to steward—to be the caretakers of his stuff. When we embrace this truth, it frees us to live a life of generosity, no matter our station or income level.
