Your Money Counts Series - Investing (Part 2) by Trevor Naidoo
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Your Money Counts series, we continue exploring Biblical principles of giving, saving, and investing—with a clear reminder that saving and investing are only healthy when they are balanced by generosity. Jesus’ parable of the rich fool in Luke 12 warns against storing up treasures for ourselves while neglecting to be rich toward God.
We outline 3 acceptable goals for investing:
- Providing for your family
- Becoming financially free to serve the Lord
- Operating a business without debt
Listeners are encouraged to establish a financial “finish line” to guard against hoarding and keep their hearts aligned with Christ.
The episode also addresses:
- The danger of desiring to be rich
- The “split and submit” principle for overcoming the love of money
- Wisdom regarding inheritance and wills
- Why gambling conflicts with Biblical stewardship.
Throughout, Scripture contrasts culture’s message of “spend and accumulate” with God’s call to faithful, purposeful stewardship.
