Faith in Finances

By Megan J. Conner

“Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” Heb. 13:5 (NIV)

Faith in finances is a tough topic to tackle, but is one I have felt the Lord revealing and refining in my own life for the last several years. While it is not always the most comfortable subject, I pray you hang in with me as we both take a deeper dive into what scripture says about our faith, our hearts, and our relationship with the almighty dollar bill.

First, I would like to dispel the myth that money is bad, especially for Christians. The truth is, money is part of our worldly systems and even Jesus understood its role in the earthly realm (see Matt. 22:15-21).

On the contrary, it can be a powerful tool for the Kingdom of God when used properly. The issue with money is not its existence; it is our hearts.
