A speaker reflects on chasing wealth and feeling empty five years ago, before finding purpose in faith. He argues you should pursue as much money as possible through excellence in your abilities, but only if the Savior stays at the center of your life.
If you love money, we know that the love of money is, is the root of all kinds of evil. Yeah, right. And so that pursuit of it, if that's what you're chasing after and you're pursuing above and beyond your relationship with your Savior, it's— you're gonna be left unfulfilled. This is where I was at 5, 5 and a half years ago, man. It was just like, man, is this really what life is about? Just completely unfulfilled because my priorities. So it was— I was— I didn't have discipleship in my life, and I didn't really know what the purpose of it actually was. Sure. And so this is just a good reminder for us listening to this of like, yeah, if the question is like, well, how much is enough? Or how much money do you, do you want to make? My answer is still going to be as much as I possibly can until the day I die, right? Because why would I settle for anything less than excellent in that? Because if God's given me the ability to do it, why would I— why wouldn't I go all out?
