Welcoming Back Rabbi Lapin

[2:23] Rachel: “We believe alike when it comes to money. And it’s amazing to me, to be able to understand the roots of what everything means, financially, and how that connects to our Christian faith, how it connects to biblical principles.” 

And a common journey is reconciling faith with finances—how can you be a good Christian and a good entrepreneur without those things being in conflict? Fortunately, as Rabbi Lapin shows us, there’s more overlap than you think. We’ve enjoyed having him as a guest several times before because he has a deep understanding of the bible and the financial wisdom within its pages. 

[4:54] Rabbi Daniel Lapin: “We are not using our time today to try and surreptitiously convert people to faith. What we are trying to do, very forthrightly, is impact their bank accounts.”

Why Business Matters

We’ve talked about many of the Rabbi’s books on The Money Advantage, and today we’re discussing one of his older books, Business Secrets from the Bible. What’s great about this book is that it provides a strategic, spiritual approach to business. And the foundation of this approach is within the pages of the Bible.

Understanding the business secrets from the Bible starts with recognizing that entrepreneurship and wealth creation aren't separate from spiritual life - they're expressions of it when done with the right heart and principles.
