Bob Goff once said, “We won’t be distracted by comparison if we are captivated by purpose.” When we compare, we measure our success against someone else’s life. But when we understand who we are in Christ and why God has entrusted us with resources, money becomes a tool for our purpose, rather than a scorecard. On the next Faith & Finance Live, Rob West and Jim Rasmussen help us escape the comparison trap. Then, it’s on to calls. That’s Faith and Finance Live . . . biblical wisdom for your financial decisions. That’s weekdays at 4pm Eastern/3pm Central on Moody Radio.
