Yeah, you’re not alone. In this chat, we tackle the age-old question of whether it’s wrong to want wealth. A listener hit us up, wrestling with the notion that money equates to greed, thanks to some mixed messages from the church. It’s about what you worship, not just your wallet. We set the record straight on the classic misquote about money being the root of all evil. Spoiler alert: it’s not money that’s the problem; it’s the love of it.
