Ep. 1134: What Did Jesus Teach Us About Money?

Everybody needs money.  Like it or not, it is one of the driving forces that contribute to a successful life.  As Christians, we all know we need to be aware of how we handle our money.  We also look to Jesus for the core values of our entire lives, so observing what he said about it is big.  It has been said that 40 percent of Jesus’ parables had to do with money.  While Jesus DID talk about it regularly, he wasn’t necessarily teaching about it more than anything else.  Consider that in all of Jesus’ recorded experiences and teachings, we have NO example of Jesus ever having money or even touching it!  So, why would we want to learn about it from someone who never had any?  Because he is Jesus!  And because he holds the keys to eternal riches.  He demonstrated exactly how it should be used and how to avoid becoming its slave!
