Is wealth always a blessing, or can it become a burden? In this episode, we explore the paradox of prosperity through the biblical story of Abraham and Lot. As wealth increases, so do the challenges—strife, difficult choices, and the temptation to drift from faith.
What can we learn from their decisions about contentment, stewardship, and the risks of pursuing wealth without wisdom? Join us as we unpack Genesis 13 and 19 and examine how wealth impacts our faith and relationships. #BiblicalFinance #MoneyAndFaith #Stewardship
