The Trial of Affluence: Discipleship for the well-paid

Katie Stinar, AFC

James 1:10 (NIV) states, "the rich should take pride in their humiliation." Medical professionals are among the better-paid half of our society. Our attitudes about wealth are so easily shaped by American culture and values, even those of us who work with the poor. We'll discuss the spiritual implications of wealth and affluence and how we must renew our minds to live our financial lives as true disciples of Jesus and to think rightly about our less-financially-fortunate patients.
