At ANIP, we consider there are two important tenants of the Christian faith to consider:
- Faithful stewardship and Return on Investment. It is God that has so generously given us talents, gifts, assets and resources, and we have a responsibility to be faithful in our use of them for His purpose, and His glory. (See Mat 27).
- Wise risk taking. Mat 17 implores us that when we are given a gift from God, there is an expectation of return. That in its very nature requires us to take risk, to not hide our light under the table, but to shine it on a hill. The key though is to take intentional, God honouring risks, not reckless or uniformed risks.
Risk Management is simply the intentional way we relate to people, the way we manage our assets and the way care for his creation. Insurance is one way that we can be wise in protecting the resources He has given for our care.
