Financial Ethics: Sports Betting and Gambling

Sports betting is more popular—and more accepted—than ever, even among Christians. But is it just harmless fun, or something more? On the next Faith & Finance Live, Dr. David W. Jones joins Rob West again in our financial ethics series. They examine what is said in Scripture about gambling and how believers should think about it. Then, Rob addresses your financial questions. That’s Faith & Finance Live, where biblical wisdom meets today’s finances—weekdays at 4pm Eastern/3pm Central on Moody Radio.
