About this episode

Randy Alcorn discusses misconceptions in Christian investing culture regarding reward and stewardship.

What if the biggest barrier to faithful stewardship isn't greed — it's a theological misunderstanding about reward? Randy Alcorn, author of Treasure Principle and 64 other books, joins Justin Forman to dismantle some of the most persistent misconceptions in Christian investing culture: that happiness and holiness are at odds, that pursuing reward is somehow unspiritual, and that heaven is an endless, passive existence with nothing meaningful to do.
