CONTRIBUTIONS TO FAITH DRIVEN INVESTOR
An enterprise is “a business venture, especially one requiring boldness and energy.” Stewardship is “the trusted management and protection of another’s property.” It then follows that “Enterprise Stewardship” is “managing with boldness and energy the business ventures God has entrusted to us.”
