What you will hear in this episode

A disciple is a person who has an ongoing, life-changing, relationship with Jesus Christ, and gladly shares what he or she has learned with others.

A disciple by definition is also geared to making other disciples.

Jesus said, “you cannot serve both God and mammon. So this money “power” is competing for our devotion, and if we don’t learn to steward this power, this money, then it will take over our devotion.

The first outcome of a financial disciple is to know Christ more intimately.

I think that financial problems which were exhibited by this young man were an outside indicators of an internal spiritual problem that he had. He was selfish, greedy, he refused to wait, not loving his father, but loving money and the high life.

Someone said to me when I was a young Christian, Peter, show me your bank statement and I will show you what you’re living for.

Financial discipleship is a journey, and the destination is Christ-likeness.
