The Burden Of Blessing

from Idle Treasure: a Christian response to the wealth sitting in donor advised funds · host Courtney Markley

“I hate having money.” When a young inheritor says that out loud, it exposes something most of us rarely name: wealth can bring loneliness, fear, and constant relationship tension.In this episode we sit down with Kate, who inherited millions of dollars at 21, to talk about the burden of blessing and the hidden pressures many next-gen inheritors carry while families navigate the Great Wealth Transfer and the growing DAF dilemma.Dr. Gary Hoag also joins us to explore how scripture challenges us to think differently about legacy building. If you’ve ever felt conflicted about wealth, suspicious of generosity talk, or stuck deciding what to do with charitable assets, this conversation is for you.~Idle Treasure is sponsored by the Center for Financial Discipleship. Want more from Idle Treasure?
