About Stewardship Ministries

E.G. “Jay” Link, President

Mr. Link has a unique background. His early training and career was in church ministry where he developed his passion for serving and discipling people to a deeper walk with the Lord. During this time he earned a Master of Divinity degree in Biblical Theology which has proven to be an invaluable biblical foundation for all his future ministry initiatives.

After preaching for several years, he entered the financial services industry and a few years later began regularly teaching sound stewardship and financial principles to Christians in local churches around the country,

Over the years his career developed into a Family Wealth Counseling practice for very high net worth families helping them more effectively steward all the resources that God had entrusted to them.  His ministry to these families has produced a radical transformation in their spiritual lives as well as in their ability to give generously beyond anything they ever imagined possible.

For two decades Jay has also been actively training and personally mentoring hundreds of other professional advisors to provide Family Wealth Counseling services to their clients, multiplying his stewardship ministry to advisors and families nationwide hundreds of times over.

Through Stewardship Ministries Jay actively shares his message of stewardship and generosity with church and para-church ministry leaders, development staff and financial professionals assisting them to more effectively serve their donors and clients.

Jay has written three books and over 100 articles on the topic of strategic stewardship and creative giving. His passion for bringing about personal and spiritual transformation through learning and then applying these life-changing stewardship principles is absolutely contagious.

 
Kara Morton, Product Developer

Kara Morton is Jay’s third daughter and grew up watching the work and influence of her father in teaching, training and mentoring others to be good and generous stewards of all that God has entrusted to them. Of all of Jay’s four daughters, he and his wife always thought that Kara was the most likely to continue in his work. Time has proven that to be true.

Kara joined Stewardship Ministries in May of 2010. She graduated from Ozark Christian College in Joplin, MO, and she and her husband relocated to Indianapolis in order for her to serve at Stewardship Ministries.

Prior to joining Stewardship Ministries, Kara excelled in retail sales management with two national clothing chains and declined four different management positions to accept her position with SM. We are excited to have Kara in this position because of (1.) her clear understanding of our life stewardship message and (2.) her personal experience in working with children and teens, (3.) her giftedness in writing and (4.) her academic background, which includes considerable training in writing, curriculum development and Bible.
