Consider & Imitate
4 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 5 years ago - ★★★★★ - 1 ratingWelcome to Consider & Imitate, a podcast exploring what God has to say about our money. The purpose of this show is not to grow your wealth, but is instead to understand what it means to be faithful with little and faithful with much."Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." - Hebrews 13:7-8Through interviews with individuals who have wisdom to share, I pray this show leads you to consider the outcome of a life of financial obedience. I encourage you to imitate the faith of people who have discovered that the God who provided for Abraham, David, Paul, Martin Luther and George Muller, is the same God who provides for us today.
