Should Christians Be Rich
from Deeper Roots Podcast · host Impact Church Greensboro
Send us Fan MailNew York is popping off after a game night, and not in a good way. We start by talking through the postgame chaos and why sports fandom can never be a free pass to act violent, especially when regular people are just trying to get home safe. Then we get into the basketball side, too: how a team blows a huge lead, what coaching should do to stop a run, and why “slow the game down” is basically wisdom for life.From there, a viral headline takes us somewhere deeper: a trillionaire story and the question behind it. Does God want Christians to be extremely wealthy? Is wealth a blessing, a byproduct of wisdom, or sometimes a trap that makes faith unnecessary? We push back on prosperity gospel thinking, talk about biblical examples of rich believers, and keep coming back to motive and stewardship. Money can fund real help for real people, but it can also reveal what we worship when nobody is watching.We wrap with two moments that hit close to home: a scary pool-day accident where a kid’s tooth gets knocked out and a dentist puts it back in within the time window, plus a proud dad update about a daughter’s graduation and major scholarships. If you care about faith and finances, Christian stewardship, and real-life stories that make you rethink what matters, this one is for you.Subscribe for more, share this with a friend who debates money and faith, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
