Reference: Matthew 25:14–30

John Wesley’s famous formula “Get all you can; save all you can; give all you can” must be supplemented. It should read, “Get all you can; save all you can; freely use all you can within a properly disciplined spiritual life; and control all you can for the good of humankind and God’s glory.” Giving all you can would then naturally be a part of an overall wise stewardship.

—Dallas Willard, The Spirit of the Disciplines (Harper, 1988)
