In this episode we explore how wealth can shape our gifts and hearts, using Solomon's life as a case study. From the wisdom he sought to govern well to the temptations that led him astray, we uncover biblical insights into the blessings and dangers of wealth.

We’ll discuss how to align your resources with God's will, avoid spiritual pitfalls, and set "finish lines" for your financial goals in light of faith. Let's reflect on the tension between trusting God and trusting wealth, and discover how to steward our lives for His glory.
