This week on Wordsmith, Pastor Clay sits down with Katy Yonker for a conversation centered on Ecclesiastes 5 and its honest look at money, wealth, and the human heart. Together, they explore why the pursuit of more never truly satisfies, how easily good things can become ultimate things, and the subtle ways money can shift from a tool into something we trust or even love.
Through personal stories, biblical insight, and practical wisdom, this episode wrestles with the tension between enjoying what God has given and guarding against idolatry. They also reflect on how Scripture reframes our understanding of life, not as something we chase and control, but as something we receive from God. Ultimately, this conversation invites listeners to examine where their hope is placed and to rediscover the kind of life that brings real joy, freedom, and lasting satisfaction.
