The Whip and Sparrow: Exploring Jesus's surprising thoughts about money
Jacob Buurma
Personal finance writers tend to focus on techniques to acquire wealth. Christian writing on the topic often repeats the same - or piles on heavy burdens in the form of 'timeless principles'. Better to start with Jesus's own teaching about money, his second favourite topic of conversation. At Kaleo, we'll explore both the whip of Jesus - his sometimes violent attitudes towards money, and the sparrow in flight - his deeply liberating parables about personal finances.

What is Kaleo?
Kaleo is The Table’s leadership and discipleship program. At it's core, the Christian faith is a call (or kaleo in Greek) to follow Jesus in all spheres of life. The Bible describes this commitment as discipleship, a blend of a lifelong apprenticeship and ongoing spiritual formation. Jesus himself told his leaders to always make this a major priority (see Matthew 28).
Much of what we do at The Table revolves around trying to connect the dots between spiritual life and practical life, and we've heavily invested in one . We call it Kaleo: a Call to Gospel Formation.
