Questions & Answers


Q. All my friend seems to think about is making money. I see him becoming less and less interested in church and Bible study. Is there anything I can do?

A.
Try to help your friend see the excitement of a friendship that does important things for God by working on some of the Togethers. Unfortunately, most forms of church are not as exciting as the challenge of making money. But, Jesus’ church is not supposed to be a passive, boring experience. Certainly your friendship — assuming you are both Christians — can be vital and tremendously more meaningful than pursuing money. Help your friend see the great privilege in obeying God and serving Him through the Togethers.


You might want to use our “Friends Together with Jesus” card pack to develop the more scriptural aspects of your friendship. There is a Together Card for "Keep One Another from the Love of Money" with suggested ways you and your friend can go about putting money in its rightful place.
