E91: Pursuing Wealth with a Godly Heart with Isaac Schafer

Sure, maybe money can buy (fleeting) happiness. But is our goal happiness, or is it God?

 

In this thought-provoking episode of Wealth Well Done, Eric Scovill and Pastor Isaac Schafer challenge listeners to examine their motives for wealth and the pursuit of it.

 

Eric and Isaac tackle tough questions head-on: Is making money inherently wrong? How can we pursue growth without losing sight of our true source of security? And what does it really mean to "seek first the kingdom of God" in our financial lives?

 

Prepare to be challenged, encouraged, and equipped with a fresh perspective on wealth that aligns with biblical principles and promotes true flourishing in all areas of life.
