Why Christians Stay Poor And How The Bible Calls You To Build Wealth | With Lee Jenkins

Description

What if everything the church taught you about money was backwards? Former NFL player turned multimillionaire investment advisor Lee Jenkins walked away from Wall Street to plant a church and discovered the brutal truth: Jesus picked businessmen as His disciples for a reason, and the modern church is missing it. In this conversation, we cover why money is just as spiritual as prayer, why Joseph of Arimathea is the real entrepreneurial archetype for believers, and why Eagles Nest Church bought a 16-acre shopping mall instead of a traditional building. If you have ever felt guilty for wanting to build wealth or confused about whether God actually wants you to prosper, this episode will rewire how you think about finances forever.
