paraphrase: Stewardship theory is a more recent theory (Bernstein et al., 2016). Stewardship theory was introduced as a standard recourse to agency theory, and its authors asserted the absence of intrinsic governance motivational issues by leaders (Donaldson & Davis, 1991). Stewardship theory confronts the principal-agent bond. Nevertheless, it infers that synergism and veracity (versus control and misgiving) thrive between the principal (God/church) and agent (clergy/church administrators), partially through their considerable institutional connection. Stewardship theory may be viewed twofold: (1) the agent will operate representing the principal though their interests contrast, and consequently, they will accomplish improved respective outputs of achievement, teamwork, and developing oneself, or (2) joint interests reveal the principal's and agent's objectives as a cohesive whole (Bernstein et al., 2016). Administrators can possess intrinsic urges to boost the establishment's returns ascribed to integrity and owners', organization, or the organization's mission affiliation (Wilson, 2016)
