Unspoken Stewardship isn’t just something you listen to, it’s something we build together. Send your fan mail, questions, or testimonies. Community starts with conversation.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Lynn Abies explores the responsibilities we carry before God, culture, and ourselves even when no one is watching. Moving beyond the popular focus on calling, purpose, and breakthrough, this conversation confronts what it means to be faithful stewards of what God has already entrusted to us.

This isn't about shame or condemnation, it's about reframing responsibility as an expression of love for God and love for our neighbor. If you're looking for a podcast that calls you higher with love, clarity, and scripture, you're in the right place.
