We give to churches, charities, schools, and causes that claim to do good. But far too often, our money ends up strengthening institutions that openly oppose Christ, catechize our children into the world’s values, and undermine the very civilization the church is called to build. In this episode of Everyday Reformation, Nick Carter sits down with Pastor Brandon Scroggins to expand on the theology of 2 Corinthians 8–9 and press it into everyday life. This is not a sermon recap — it’s a hard look at economic allegiance, Christian spending, localism with discernment, and how faithful households can take dominion with their dollars. We explore: Why generosity includes spending, not just tithes and offerings How Christians unknowingly fund their enemies The problem with uncritical localism Why “conservative” doesn’t always mean “Christian” How households, not governments, build Christian culture What it looks like to create parallel Christian economies How generational faithfulness shapes the future This episode is for Christians who believe Jesus Christ is Lord over all — including money — and who want their giving, spending, and stewardship to reflect that confession. 📌 Share this episode with another family or brother thinking through these same questions.👍 Like &amp; subscribe on YouTube to help these conversations reach more people.📲 Follow Everyday Reformation on Facebook and X for continued discussion and resources.","meta_description":"Christians are generous.
