‘The Path to Oikonomia with Jesus Christ as Our Lighthouse’ by John G. Panagiotou
18 September 2020Why I wrote my first book: I decided to write my first book because I feel that there is a real need for people to have a true Christian understanding of stewardship in all aspects of their lives.
My new book description: In exploring the concept of Christian stewardship from its historical Christian contexts, Dr. Panagiotou provides a sound foundation for stewardship as a way of life. The reader will find how Christian stewardship is a fulfillment of one’s personhood in Christ as a cooperative synergy between God and man in the mission of proclaiming the coming of God’s Kingdom on earth.

“In the contemporary Church, educating the faithful about stewardship and implementing a stewardship program may be a challenging endeavour. Dr John G. Panagiotou has a mindset and understanding that is rooted in the Biblical and Patristic faith tradition of Orthodox Christianity and that is evident on every page of this book. In viewing it through the lens of this perspective, stewardship is not seen as an optional matter of insignificance, but rather as a necessity of authentic spiritual life and growth. In exploring the concept of Christian stewardship from its historical Christian contexts, Dr. Panagiotou provides a sound foundation for stewardship as a way of life. The reader will find how Christian stewardship is a fulfillment of one’s personhood in Christ as a cooperative synergy between God and man in the mission of proclaiming the coming of God’s Kingdom on earth.”
