Obstacles to Stewardship (from www.usccb.org)
People who want to live as Christian disciples and Christian
stewards face serious obstacles. In the United States and oth-
er nations, a dominant secular culture often contradicts reli-
gious convictions about the meaning of life. This culture fre-
quently encourages us to focus on ourselves and our pleas-
ures.
At times, we can find it far too easy to ignore spiritual realities and to deny religion a role in shaping human and social values. As Catholics who have entered into the mainstream of Ameri-can society and experienced its advantages, many of us also have been adversely influenced by this secular culture. We know what it is to struggle against selfishness and greed, and we realize that it is harder for many today to accept the chal-lenge of being a Christian steward. It is essential, therefore, that we make a special effort to understand the true meaning of stewardship and live accordingly.
