“Driven living makes us the center of our well-planned schedules. It may stem from a passion to live with eternal purpose, but it signifies that we believe God’s work depends on us and neglects to acknowledge that God created us as finite resources dependent upon Him.”
― Paul Chappell, Stewarding Life: One Lifetime, Limited Resources, Eternal Priorities

“Satan will do all he can to destroy your time on Earth. If he can’t destroy it in sinful living, he will devour you by eating up your time with activities of no eternal value. Either way, the end result is the same—a wasted life.”
― Paul Chappell, Stewarding Life: One Lifetime, Limited Resources, Eternal Priorities

“Some take pains to be biblical, but many [Christian financial teachers, writers, investment counselors, and seminar leaders] simply parrot their secular colleagues. Other than beginning and ending with prayer, mentioning Christ, and sprinkling in some Bible verses, there's no fundamental difference. They reinforce people's materialist attitudes and lifestyles. They suggest a variety of profitable plans in which people can spend or stockpile the bulk of their resources. In short, to borrow a term from Jesus, some Christian financial experts are helping people to be the most successful 'rich fools' they can be.”

“A wise steward of time learns to redeem his or her moments from the Bank of Today and invest them into the Bank of Eternity. Eternity knows nothing about the fleeting nature of time, and anything deposited there will be forever preserved.”
