Faith & Finance with Rob West

Luke 16:11 says, “If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches?”  That verse is a stark reminder that we’ll all be judged one day … and have to give an account of how we've managed the resources God has given us. Do we have a blind spot when it comes to faithfully managing money? We’ll talk about it today on Faith and Finance.
