About this book
In 1898, the steamship Clara Nevada struck an uncharted rock in Southeast Alaska. The ship sank, taking with it souls on board and hundreds of pounds of gold. The treasure was lost. In response, the Eldred Rock Lighthouse was built to warn mariners of hidden dangers. As a servant of the Lord, you have been entrusted with the greatest treasureâ the gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul urged the young minister Timothy, " Guard what has been entrusted to your care" (1 Timothy 6:20). The church and the world need ministers and gospel workers who follow Paul' s advice to " watch your life and doctrine closely" (4:16). Just as nautical charts and lighthouses guide captains safely past hazards, this handbook on ministerial ethics will help you navigate wisely and finish strong. It will equip you to build healthy relationships, avoid unethical and unwise behaviors, and serve with integrity and the highest ethical standards. Trusted with Treasure addresses the misuse of power, sex, and finances; offers a framework for making ethical decisions; and explores best practices in emerging areas like social media and artificial intelligence. Practical at its core, nearly every chapter of Trusted with Treasure
