The Siren Call of Wealth

What if our most “responsible” money moves are quietly discipling us away from Jesus? Joined by guests John Rinehart, CEO of Gospel Patrons, and Leo Sabo, president of the Christian Stewardship Network, we peel back the layers of conventional wisdom to reveal how fear, control, and comparison often masquerade as stewardship—and why scripture calls us to a radically different way with wealth. We also examine donor advised funds, the temptations of control and social capital, and the subtle ways both givers and fundraisers can drift from mission. The thread through it all is an invitation: let money become a mirror of the heart, not a mask. If this conversation challenged you, share it with a friend, subscribe for bonus content of the Idle Treasure series, and leave a review with one step you’re taking to trust God over money.
