Why Christians Must Care About Work and Legacy ft. David Bahnsen

There's a lie that's been sapping the church of purpose over the past hundred or so years. That lie is rooted in individualism, and honestly, a strange view of materialism. We've exchanged covenantal theology with individual theology, and God's hand over all creation for dualism. As such, we've lost the sacredness of work, which causes so much stress, confusion, and chaos in people's lives, and we've neglected a multi-generational, biblical view of family for a short-term, cultural view. My guest today, David Bahnsen, runs a $10 Billion wealth management firm, and writes widely about the issues we discuss today. He's seen a lot when it comes to multi-generational legacies, and has thought a lot about the theology of work, even writing a book on the subject. Dive in for a succinct conversation on the importance of work and family legacy.
