Contrasting the World’s View and the Bible’s View of Money
November 30, 2016What does the world say about money? It seems to suggest that money itself can offer us success, security, and significance. It seems to offer a promise that if we only have a little bit more, we’ll be happier. Is this true though? When we look around – or within – do we see money equating to these things? Even those in the United States considered to be in poverty have 85% more wealth than the rest of the world. And yet we are surrounded by fear, insecurity, and discontentment – far cries from success, security, and significance.
Why is this? We believe it’s because the world doesn’t understand money, or at the least is offering false promises about it.
If you’re reading this, you most likely agree that the Bible has a lot to say about money, and provides some clear answers and solutions regarding money management. A link to a video summarizing some of these principles is included below, and serves as a framework for how we advise clients in their own money management. Take three minutes and watch the video produced by the Ron Blue Institute and shared to us with their permission.
Do you know of a friend or family member who may benefit from watching this video? Feel free to pass this link to the video on to them as well.
We’re all on this stewardship journey together, no matter which step we’re at in our process. And it’s our honor to walk this path with each of you.
