The "New Money" Disciple

Have you ever heard of the terms "new money" and "old money" before? "Old money" refers to those who have been born into extreme wealth. "New money" refers to those who, though born in relative poverty, later become extremely wealthy through one series of events or another. At the conclusion of the kingdom parables in Matthew 13, Jesus essentially explains that His disciples are both "old money" and "new money." What are the implications of this thought for the Christian? Ryan explains in the following message from Matthew 13:51-52 entitled, "The 'New Money' Disciple."
