The love of money leads to harmful desires. It causes the poor to live a life ruined by envy. It causes the middle class to break their backs, break their marriages and families, and break their health to move one more step up the financial ladder. It causes the wealthy to spend their wealth so frivolously that they live out a pattern of self-indulgence. Or they cling to every dollar so tightly that they never learn the joy of sharing and they’re destroyed from the inside out.

Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside’s conviction that God’s grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God’s presence and activity in your life.
