How Wealthy Are You Really?
Some cities are known for their "new money"ā€”places like Houston, where much of the wealth has been created in recent generations. Others are known for "old money"ā€”places like Boston, where wealth has often been passed down through families for generations.
People tend to approach money differently as well. Some are excellent at saving and investing what they already have. Others are especially gifted at creating new wealth.
The Kingdom of God invites us to think about wealth in a completely different way. Our greatest riches aren't found in bank accounts, but in people and relationships.
Even so, the idea of "new money" and "old money" still applies.
Some people are relationally poor because they have very few meaningful relationships. Others do a wonderful job of preserving and deepening long-standing friendships but rarely invest in new ones. Still others love meeting new people and quickly form new connections, yet struggle to maintain the friendships they've had for years.
