Jesus Praised a Dishonest Man? The Truth Behind Luke 16:1–13

Описание: At first glance, it sounds shocking — why would the Lord of truth praise a corrupt man?

In this Hard Sayings episode, we uncover the real meaning behind this confusing parable.
Jesus wasn’t applauding dishonesty — He was teaching wisdom, foresight, and faithful stewardship.
The dishonest steward planned wisely for a temporary future; Jesus challenges us to plan wisely for an eternal one.

Learn what this story reveals about:
✅ Using your time, money, and influence for eternal purposes
✅ True biblical stewardship and accountability
✅ How to invest your life in things that last forever
✅ The difference between earthly success and eternal significance

If the world can plan ahead for what fades, how much more should God’s people prepare for what lasts?
Your life is your stewardship — don’t bury it, build with it.
Be wise. Be ready. Be faithful.

👉 Watch till the end for a short prayer and reflection to help you live more intentionally for eternity.
