Facing Uncomfortable Truths: Pastor Michael Back on Righteousness and Wealth

If your reason is because he's going to bless me, you're a fan.
Ever wondered how ancient cultural perspectives shape our modern understanding of righteousness and wealth? Pastor Michael Back dives headfirst into these uncomfortable truths in this eye-opening episode of Benchmark Church's podcast. Drawing from The First Century Jewish culture, he unpacks the theological debates of the time and their relevance today. With a mix of historical context and spiritual wisdom, Back explores the complex relationship between poverty and sin, and Jesus' teachings on feeding the hungry.
He doesn't shy away from asking the hard questions, like whether you're a true follower of Jesus or just a fan. As Back puts it, 'If your reason is because he's going to bless me', then you're likely just a fan. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the challenges of faith and wealth in today's world. Tune in to gain fresh insights and perhaps, a bit of discomfort that leads to growth.
