That includes the resource of community; the extent to which we treasure and give vitality toward relationships often parallels the stewardship of our most precious gifts.

The "stewardship committee" is the frequent name for those in charge of raising money. In some denominations it's thought that all one's material resources are actually God's, so one is a steward, rather than true owner, of them. "It's God's money, not mine." <BR/><BR/>So it's interesting to think of musicians as "stewards" of works of music.
