Is sex more important than money?
I was thinking today...I dont know how much money any of my friends make. There are a couple I know..but like..the grown-up ones...the Doctors and the Lawyers and the Accountants...I have no idea.
In fact...I know more about their sex lives than their income. Why is that?
In church there was a whole special sermon on porn. All the guys went and talked about their struggles. Way to go guys..but hey church...what about money?
What does the church have against talking about money...
How much does my Pastor make? I don't know...Do you know how much yours makes?
How much does your best friends husband make....I dunno...
How many people are drowning in debt in your church right now...Dont know.
What are the smartest most stewardly way to spend it...invest it...make it grow...give it away.
Whats wrong with that?
Does the church think money is bad?
Hmm..I bet they do..
They get confused as a body very easily. I'm not asking us to love the money...But utilize it.
Why is it wrong for me to know how much people make and how they use it?
I WANNA KNOW!!!!
Really..
If the people I respect the most are using their money the best way they can...then its cool for me to know..
I mean...If Jimmy was making 100,000 a year, I would think..wow...Jimmy's doing well...until I heard that Jimmy gives away about 50,000 a year to people in need...then, Jimmy would teach me a lesson. Plus...Knowing that Jimmy spends only 25% on his home and 25% on entertainment, and he saves 25% and invests 25% in his future...wouldnt that help me as a young person?
Wouldnt it also help aleviate the "keeping up with the Joneses" mentality too? Like...If I go visit Meesha in her house and its HUGE and FABULOUS...If I know..Well, Jigs...Meesha is a doctor and brings home 250,000 a year...When you make that..you can have a house this big!
I dont know..
Maybe I'm grumpy..
Maybe I've heard too many sermons about sharing the gospel at work...
Maybe I just wanna know.
