“ I particularly liked Michael’s consistent emphasis on stewardship as a<br />

dynamic expression of our Christian life. The <strong>Passionate</strong> <strong>Steward</strong>’s<br />

presentation of stewardship in terms of the journey of faith and of the<br />

faithful, and as an outward activity of inward grace and faith is<br />

compelling. Through its pages, readers can reaffirm and reclaim a<br />

clear understanding of stewardship as that anchor out of which we live<br />

our lives as people of faith.”<br />

“ The <strong>Passionate</strong> <strong>Steward</strong> offers a profound and thought-provoking<br />

message that is not to be ignored by either the clergy or the<br />

congregation.”<br />

The Midwest Book Review<br />

“ Michael O’Hurley-Pitts... in an articulate and passionate manner,<br />

calls the Church to be true to its own message. He argues<br />

convincingly that Christian stewardship has little to do with funding<br />

budgets, naming opportunities, duty, or who gives the most. It is<br />

rather about the use of our time, talent and treasure individually and<br />

corporately, to engage in prayer, worship, mercy, kindness and acts<br />

of charity. <strong>Steward</strong>ship has to do with our generous response in<br />

praise and honor of our generous Creator God.”<br />
