What Jack and The Beanstalk Taught Me About Money

In this episode, we explore the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk beat by beat, and how each stage of the story maps onto a path out of poverty: fatherlessness, seeds versus gold coins, the difference between a bag of coins and an income-producing asset, and the final severing of the beanstalk. We also connect the story directly to Jacob's ladder in Genesis, tracing the same ten beats through Jacob's story with Laban.Part of our series at Story Chapel, a Sunday morning gathering in Cincinnati exploring fairy tales, fantasy, and mythology through the lens of the Gospel.Website: www.storychapelcincy.comEmail [email protected] for location details
