Are You a Sovereign or a Steward?
Deeper Christian Podcast • Episode 126As Christians, we can quickly default to the mindset that we are doing all things unto the glory of Jesus Christ and that our lives are in the "steward position" – when in reality we are the ones trying to control, manipulate, and dictate our lives and circumstances.True Christians, however, are not sovereigns but stewards of all God has entrusted to them.In this episode of the Deeper Christian Podcast, Nathan Johnson asks the question if you are living your life as a sovereign or a steward, and gives several practical areas of our lives we must allow the Holy Spirit to examine and bring conviction to if necessary.Download the shownotes for this episode and get other Christ-centered teaching and resources at: deeperChristian.com/126/
