Wealth More Valuable Than Money

The correct measure of organizational success is not temporal wealth but true wealth. Wise managers understand that temporal wealth (money) is a tool—it is an asset to be stewarded for a higher purpose. The higher purpose is alignment with the will and ways of God. Money should be used to acquire true wealth. For example, use money to build a stellar reputation. True wealth is seen in the quality of the stakeholders and the excellence of their value proposition. An excellent value proposition will reflect values that are important to God and bless those the organization is called to serve.
