Financial Freedom: Defeating Money as an Idol for a Life of Purpose
Wed Jan 07 2026
In this episode of Rebuild and Rise, I dive into a conversation we don’t hear often—but desperately need to have: when money quietly becomes the thing we serve.
After hearing a sermon that deeply challenged me, I realized that before we talk about fixing credit, eliminating debt, or building wealth, we have to first rebuild our relationship with money itself. Too many people are financially stuck not because they lack information, but because money has taken a place in their lives it was never meant to hold.
I share personal reflections and biblical truth on how the pursuit of money can subtly control our decisions, our peace, and our identity—and why true financial freedom doesn’t begin with a higher income, but with a shift in priorities.
This episode is about tearing down the idol of money and rebuilding with purpose, generosity, and a kingdom mindset. When your finances are aligned with your values and faith, freedom follows—not just financially, but spiritually and emotionally.
If you’re ready to stop letting money lead and start living with intention, this episode is for you. Comment down below — what moment or insight from this episode stood out to you?
