Shownotes Episode 1: Janie Oliver, CEO of Stewardship In this launch episode of Active Generosity, Stewardship’s CEO Janie Oliver describes her journey from the tough world of corporate finance to the one of faithful Christian stewardship. Hear from Janie about how her upbringing in South Africa and strong faith have fuelled her passion for generosity and her strong sense of justice. Janie’s favourite Bible verse: “Woe to you Pharisees, because you give a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practised the latter without leaving the former undone.” Luke 11 v42 (NIV) See our note on Bible usage: https://www.stewardship.org.uk/bible-usage How you can pray for Janie: That God will continue to reveal to Janie how to have an increasingly abundant mindset and to break the shackles of a scarcity mindset. In her role as CEO of Stewardship, for God to help her lead this organisation that’s dedicated to helping others explore the freedom and joy that comes with leading generous lives in all their fullness.

Welcome to Active Generosity, Stewardship's brand new podcast. Join us for an exploration into the world of faithful and generous Christian stewardship.
I’m your host, Ruth Jackson. Each month I’ll be chatting to a Stewardship donor, partner or colleague about their journey of generosity, exploring why and how they give, the joys and challenges they’ve experienced along the way and what a difference generosity makes to their lives.
As you hear from both donors and leaders of charitable causes, our prayer is that you’ll learn something new, experience fresh perspectives and be encouraged and inspired to take the next step on your own generosity journey.
Along the way, you’ll also learn something about us and the myriad ways in which we support our donors and the many charities, churches and Christian workers who are our partners. Perhaps you do already know us as a donor but have no idea we may be supporting some of your favourite causes. Or, you’ve come to us for help as a church or charity leader or Christian worker but didn’t realise we can also support you in your personal giving. As you put the pieces of the Stewardship jigsaw together, we hope you’ll also be excited to discover our growing community of engaged givers and verified partners doing amazing work across God’s Kingdom.
Subscribe to our podcast newsletter via the link in our trailer show notes, where you’ll also find further information about Stewardship.
Together, let’s discover the joy of active generosity.
