25th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Compartmentalization or consistency? In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus tells a

strange story of a sneaky, savvy steward that raises questions about our

personal virtue. “How much do you owe? Here is your promissory note, write

one for eighty.” This parable isn’t advice for money management. Historically,

there were many positions that acted on behalf of their masters regarding

money, like customs agents, household stewards, and tax collectors. Often

these workers over-charged and skimmed off the top.

Usurious practices like this were not in line with the traditional Jewish under-

standing of money lending, which strictly forbade them from to taking interest

or making a profit off of their own people. As the steward reduced the debt, he

was likely writing out the amount he originally intended to take for himself.

Before the steward can be commended, he needs to right the wrong done.

“The person who is trustworthy in very small matters is also trustworthy in

great ones; and the person who is dishonest in very small matters is also

dishonest in great ones.” This parable contains an important self-check. We

have a great many things we’re responsible for that seem to have nothing to

do with the kingdom of God. How do we interact in those spaces? Are we

trustworthy in our dealings at work and at home? Are we honest and faithful

to our commitments to family and friends? Are we honest with our money and

prudent with how we spend our time?
