Do we put our faith in our savings account—or in the Lord? In this episode of What Catholics Believe, Professor Michael Barber unpacks the biblical meaning of almsgiving and why it is essential to the Christian life. Rooted in Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon on the Mount, almsgiving isn’t optional—it’s expected.
Discover how almsgiving, prayer, and fasting work together to transform the heart, combat the “lust of the eyes,” and free us from false security in wealth. More than a Lenten practice, almsgiving is about becoming like Christ and learning what true treasure really is.
