Richard Illges joins The Redeemed Man podcast. Richard Illges is an investment advisor with more than three decades of experience in banking and finance. While he’s built a successful career on wise money management, the end goal, he says, should always be how we can use those resources to enrich others throughout God’s kingdom, not merely ourselves. “We think money and status can propel us ‘ahead’ of our Dad or brother or neighbor, and we think we can heal a lot of wounds that way—that we can ‘prove’ our manhood by our success with money,” says Illges, who leads a men’s ministry at Christ Community Church in Columbus, Georgia. “But it is never enough. We don’t end up owning money—it owns us.”
