Episode 20: The Kingdom Principle Of Wealth

Imagine growing up with a mindset that wealth was only for “others,” never for you. 

Matt Davis starts this episode with a personal story about his family’s relationship with money and how it shaped his life, especially as a pastor. 

This episode challenges that mindset, addressing the tension between poverty and wealth in the Kingdom of God. 

We want to redefine wealth from a Kingdom perspective – how can we break free from the anxiety and burden of money, and move toward stewardship and abundance? 

Bryan, Matt, and Chantal process what it means to manage wealth as faithful stewards in God’s Kingdom, emphasizing spiritual abundance and the right use of material resources to expand God’s work on earth.
