## Resource

This week, Jason and Noel unpack the deeper tension underneath Jesus’ teaching on money in Luke 12: not just greed, but anxiety, control, and the way we struggle to think eternally. The conversation explores why we live as though this life is all there is, even while believing eternity is real, and how that shapes the way we view possessions, generosity, and security. They also discuss what it means to invest in people instead of things, the complicated balance between enjoying what God provides and holding it with open hands, and why anxiety may actually be one of the most common forms of greed.
