Is it wrong for Christians to desire wealth? Can you pursue financial abundance without falling into idolatry? In this powerful episode of Prosper in the Kingdom, hosts Jon Cleaver and Wendy Lee tackle the tension between biblical wealth and the dangers of the prosperity gospel.

You’ll discover what the Bible really says about money, the difference between stewardship and greed, and how to build wealth with kingdom purpose—not guilt or hype. This conversation is for faith-driven entrepreneurs, Christian leaders, and anyone who wants to be financially free without compromising their faith.
