Money, Wealth, and Faith: Season 8 Episode 2

Host Aggie Park and guest Joanne Choi explore the topics of money & wealth, through the lens of faith. In this thought-provoking episode, we dive into a challenging yet important question for people living in wealthy countries: Can we enjoy comfort and luxury while staying true to our deepest values and purpose?


💡What does it mean to live with purpose and integrity — even when you're surrounded by wealth and comfort?

✨ Why conversations about money and values matter — and how they impact our lives today.

✨ How to tell if our blessings are opportunities to grow or challenges that test our character.

✨ Finding balance between chasing wealth and rejecting it altogether.

✨ Real-life examples from the Bible of people who used their resources well — and those who didn’t.

✨ Understanding seemingly contradictory ideas about wealth, blessings, and the dangers of greed.

✨ Practical steps to avoid making money your ultimate priority while appreciating life’s blessings with gratitude.


Whether you’re feeling guilty about your blessings, struggling with materialism, or simply wanting to live a life of integrity and purpose — this conversation is for you.


🎙️ Tune in for practical guidance, eye-opening insights, and a fresh perspective on how to handle wealth and success without losing what truly matters.

🔔 Listen now and let’s explore how to live fully and authentically — even when life feels comfortable.


Joanne Choi is a remarkable woman of faith juggling many roles: mother of 4 boys, wife to Steve Choi (elder at Faith Harvest Church), owner of Health Nut, former secondary math teacher, and case manager at Door of Hope in Pasadena.
