Where does money come from and why do we value it so much?
In This Episode, We Look At:
Money is one thing can so quickly turn the Christian’s heart away from the Lord and into idolatry. (I am not saying money is bad).
Since antiquity there has always been some sort of money (something of value exchanged for something else of value). The more you have the more stuff you can obtain.
How money is viewed.
Our view of money can be very subjective and often progresses (or regresses) through varying seasons of our lives. Thankfully we have Scripture through which to view money. God provides money for the meeting of our needs, and some God-honoring pleasures (1 Timothy 6:17), equips is for a life of faith ( 2 Cor. 9:8), and we ought not worry, even about money (Phil. 4:6, Luke 12:22-32)
