Stewarding Technology with Wisdom, Peace, and Purpose

Since the pandemic, ministry today requires more digital engagement than ever before, with emails, texts, livestreams, systems, records, and online platforms all competing for a pastor’s time and attention.

What was once meant to be a helpful support has, for many leaders, become a constant source of pressure and fatigue. Yet technology was never intended to exhaust those who serve—it was meant to serve ministry.

This free resource is designed to help you bring your digital tools back into alignment with your mission, values, and personal wellbeing, so they once again support your calling rather than drain your energy.

The Importance of Online Stewardship

Technology stewardship is essential because it touches every part of a church’s health—not just communication systems, but relationships, time, vision, and spiritual focus. When digital tools are stewarded wisely, they bring clarity, connection, and sustainability, helping leaders serve more effectively without becoming overwhelmed. Faithful technology stewardship ensures that the tools God has entrusted to the church remain servants of the mission rather than distractions from it, supporting long-term ministry impact rooted in wisdom, integrity, and care for people.
