What if true wealth has nothing to do with how much money you have?
In this episode of Ignite Mic, Jesse Amos sits down with Scott Thomas, founder of Stewardship Matters, to discuss one of the most misunderstood biblical principles—stewardship.
From managing finances to managing your time, family, talents, and influence, Scott explains why everything we have has been entrusted to us by God.
This conversation goes far beyond money.
Scott shares why he once fired one of his wealthiest clients because of integrity, why God woke him in the middle of the night with the word "Sprouting," how generosity can completely change your life, and why biblical stewardship is about far more than giving 10%.
Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, ministry leader, nonprofit director, or simply someone trying to honor God with your finances, this episode is packed with practical wisdom and biblical insight.
