Wealth (Part 1)

Toward a Radically Christian CountercultureSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the concept of wealth and its importance in different cultures. He examines the early Christian practice of communal living and common purse and explores the idea of forsaking possessions as a cost of discipleship. Gregg argues that wealth is not inherently bad, but rather it is the love of money or possessions that is condemned in the Bible. He also discusses the relationship between wealth and work, biblical perspectives on material riches, and the dangers of forgetting that everything we have comes from God.
