The Money Challenge featuring Art Rainer

Podcast Episode #335Art Rainer joins us to talk about generosity and money matters related to his new book The Money Challenge.Some highlights from today's episode include: * God has designed us not as hoarders but as conduits through which His generosity flows. * Debt cripples your ability to live generously. * Pastors are often hesitant to preach on finances as a way to avoid conflict that may result. * When we give, we should have an eternal perspective for our sacrifice. * When we are financially healthy, we have a greater ability to be generous for the Kingdom. * Social media has made "keeping up with the Joneses" exponentially worse. * Give generously. Save Wisely. Live Appropriately.About Art Rainer:Art Rainer is the Vice President for Institutional Advancement at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.
