Simon Pranaitis explores the use of money for the glory of God in his conclusion to the fourteen-week "Proof of Work" series. In this final lesson, we explore how money is God’s good gift, designed to help us fulfill His purposes in our work and community. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture reveals that money is neither evil nor ultimate, but a tool to be stewarded faithfully under God’s sovereignty. We address lingering questions about debt, tithing, and the role of gold and silver, showing how biblical principles guide our financial decisions. Above all, we are called to use money wisely and generously, doing all things to the glory of God.
