The core message is clear: the rich man wasn't condemned for his wealth but for his complete lack of compassion. He saw suffering and did nothing.

Through the example of divorce, we discover how the Pharisees—and how we—rationalize Scripture to fit our lives instead of fitting our lives to Scripture.

In Episode 251 of the 2 Minute Disciple, we explore Luke 16:1-13 and Jesus's challenging teaching on money, faithfulness, and true riches. This episode reveals that money is not the true riches—the true riches are spiritual: intimacy with God, transformation of character, eternal impact, and spiritual authority. Through the parable of the dishonest manager, we discover that how we handle money—the small, material things—reveals our character and what we actually value. Jesus makes clear that we cannot serve two masters: either money will be our god, or Jesus will be. Through guided meditation and a practical daily habit of honest stewardship, learn how to track your spending, examine what it reveals about your values, and make one deliberate change toward faithfulness. Join us as we explore what it means to be shrewd for eternity and faithful in the little things.
