What does it really mean to be “materialistic”? Is owning nice things wrong—or is there a deeper heart issue at play? In this episode, we explore how materialism shapes our thinking, our relationships, and even our faith.
We discuss both sides of the struggle: the temptation to love worldly comfort and possessions more than God, and the danger of judging others with a covetous heart. From social media comparison to consumer culture, we unpack what Scripture says about storing up treasures in heaven (Matthew 6:19–20), being content with what we have (Hebrews 13:5), and pursuing success without compromising faith (1 Timothy 6:9, 17).
We also touch on the line between conviction and covetousness, and how Christians can navigate the modern world’s obsession with wealth and status with biblical discernment and joy.
