evangelical 360° Ep. 71 / Gospel Stewardship in Business and Mission with Lord Robert & Lady Tracie Edmiston
A teenager who disliked God becomes a businessman, philanthropist and member of the House of Lords, yet the turning point is shockingly small: an invitation slipped through a letterbox. In this episode we sit down with Lord and Lady Edmiston of the UK to trace that unlikely arc and ask what it means to live faithfully when your work puts you near power, money and public scrutiny.
Our conversation covers vocation and faithful stewardship, but Lord Robert also shares personally, about the grind of night school, family pressures, and the shock of a bankruptcy, and how rebuilding a company taught him to hold success with open hands. From there we dig into Christian philanthropy and how giving generously to global missions, and from a place of love, saves us from making money our god.
We also cover the evangelistic efforts of Christian Vision (or CV). Starting decades ago using shortwave radio, the ministry of CV now reaches millions around the world through social media, online evangelism and emerging technologies, with a specific focus on unreached people groups and closed countries. If you care about faith in public life, generosity and global evangelism, this conversation will provide both conviction and practical ideas.
And if you'd like to learn more about CV you can follow them on Facebook or go to the website. And please don't forget to share this episode and join the conversation on YouTube!
