2 - Is it Ok for Christians to Be Rich?

On this episode, we welcome former Seacoast Chief of Operations Jack Hoey Jr and author and activist Shane Claiborne as they discuss the morals surrounding wealth.  While both men practice a life of generosity that would exceed most people, they read and process very differently the many passages in the bible pertaining to money.At top of episode, co-hosts Jack Hoey III (son of Jack Hoey Jr) and Jacqui Dailey reflect on their upbringing surrounding money and Jack proposes that Americans, inside and outside of the church, are remarkably generous.Shane Claiborne is a prominent speaker, activist, and best-selling author; worked with Mother Teresa in Calcutta, and founded The Simple Way in Philadelphia.  He heads up Red Letter Christians, a movement of folks who are committed to living "as if Jesus meant the things he said." Shane is a champion for grace which has led him to jail advocating for the homeless, and to places like Iraq and Afghanistan to stand against war. Now grace fuels his passion to end the death penalty and help stop gun violence.LIVE Q&A this week with Jack, Shane, you, me. Continuing the conversation.
