God’s View of Money with Guest Larry Burkett

How are you honoring God with your finances? Matthew 6:24 says, “No one can serve two masters…you cannot serve both God and money.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, the late Larry Burkett said there’s a reason why two-thirds of all Christ’s parables addressed the issue of money. It's a heart issue! How we utilize the resources the Lord entrusts us with is an X-ray of our priorities.
