Generosity 02: Watch Out for Greed!

Rule of Life

About this episode

Accumulation and acquisition are often celebrated as the path to security and happiness, but Jesus warns against the broken human desire to always want more. 

In Episode 02 of the Generosity Season, John Mark and Christian Dawson explore how Jesus’ way of generosity can set us free from enslavement to greed and slowly train our hearts to be deeply happy and content.  

Learn how the pursuit of possessions leads to hurry and anxiety, ways to become more sensitive to our invisible propensity towards greed, and why Jesus calls wealth so deceitful.

This podcast accompanies the Generosity Practice, a four-session experience designed to help integrate generosity into your community. Learn more at practicingtheway.org/generosity.
