Traditionally men have created a deep split between the inner and outer world, between body and soul, between the material and spiritual world, between love and money and between male and female qualities. The inner man and woman are related to money, creativity and financial abundance.

(For true disciples, however, it cannot mean hoarding or using kingdom assets self-indulgently.) ↗
We should remember Christ's words, 'Let nothing be wasted,' when we look in our refrigerators and garbage cans and garages. ↗
I feel like a child who has found a wonderful trail in the woods. Countless others have gone before and blazed the trail, but to the child it's as new and fresh as if it had never been walked before. The child is invariably anxious for others to join in the great adventure. It's something that can only be understood by actual experience. Those who've begun the journey, and certainly those who've gone further than I, will readily understand what I am saying. ↗
In the midst of prosperity, the challenge for believers is to handle wealth in such a way that it acts as a blessing, not a curse. ↗
There is no point in expending good money on the pursuit of an engine that can power aircraft without propellers. What is wrong with airships anyway? They have borne mankind aloft for over a hundred relatively accident-free years and I see no reason to impugn their popularity... ↗
