Episode Description from the Publisher

THE SONS OF THIS WORLD ARE WISER…In this episode of Business Unusual, Charles & Susan unpack one of Jesus’ most provocative parables in Luke 16:1–13 — the story of the unjust steward.Why would Jesus commend a man described as unjust? Because while Jesus was not endorsing dishonesty, He was highlighting something Kingdom people often lack: strategic foresight.The steward recognized that his present system was about to fail, and while he still had opportunity, he used what was in his hand to prepare for the next season.Discover why Jesus said, “The sons of this world are more shrewd… than the sons of light,” and what this means for how we handle money, opportunity, relationships and influence today.Learn how to:• Recognize when a season or system is shifting• Use mammon as a tool without allowing it to become your master• Convert temporary resources into lasting Kingdom impact• Build for God’s unshakable order rather than depending on Babylon’s passing systemsThe question is not simply, “What do I have?” but, “How am I using what I have today to prepare for what is coming?”
