Listen. The bible's fascinating. Jesus spoke about money and possessions more than almost any single topic. A third of his parables touch in on economics. One in 13 verses in the synoptic gospels, that's Matthew, Mark, and Luke, address wealth, generosity, and poverty. There are around 500 verses on prayer in the bible, fewer than 500 explicit verses on faith, and more than 2,000 verses on dealing with money. In other words, how we handle money is not a side issue. It's fundamentally a discipleship issue. God knows how powerful money is.
