About this listen
In a hillside sermon King Jesus said, "It's easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter God's kingdom." What did he mean? Was he saying all money is evil? When 1 Timothy 6:10 says, "the love of money is the root of all evil," is God ruling out that we provide for our families? Is the ambition to work and produce and earn and contribute. . . is that ambition evil? In this conversation Mark and I process different angles about money, money and serving the Lord Jesus. Ed recounts how out-of-place he felt when he attended his wife's opulent work parties in Newport Beach. Mark talks about having earned a degree in insects but needing to go and provide for his family. When Jesus lived an austere lifestyle—"the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head"—was he demanding we all live in such austerity? Come think and laugh with us about this important topic, important in a Christian worldview.
