How God Defines Success With Pastor Luke Casagrande
Tue Feb 03 2026
In this spontaneous episode of Wisdom as Wealth, host Justin Buonomo sits down with his pastor and close friend Pastor Luke Casagrande for an unscripted, deeply honest conversation recorded in the middle of a winter day — beanies, sweatpants, and all. What begins as a personal discussion about faith and adversity quickly turns into a powerful dialogue on why following Jesus is not meant to be easy, and why discomfort, suffering, and self-denial are often God’s greatest tools for growth.
Together, they unpack common misconceptions around faith, success, and wealth — challenging the idea that obedience to God leads to comfort or worldly prosperity. Instead, they explore what it truly means to deny yourself, pick up your cross, and measure success through faithfulness rather than outcomes. The conversation weaves together Scripture, real-life experiences, and personal testimonies, including Justin’s journey with ambition, money, approval, and how God is redeeming those motives for a greater purpose.
