In this podcast Episode, David Loveless talks about how to discover the wealth of your life worth statement.

Most of us have have conformed to our cultural conditioning in which we’ve been told that our Net Worth Statement, is actually what we’re are worth.  But it’s a lie.  We’ve got great news for you today, you are wealthier than you imagined… right now.

Here is a brief summary of today’s episode of “The Live True Podcast.”  You can use this as a reference or reminder of key things you feel like you need to pay attention to or pass on to others, in the next 7 days of your life.

Earlier this week we wrote a blog on “The Winning Ticket is in Your Pocket.”  We promised to do a podcast this week on the same thing, where we could explore this more in depth.  So here it is.

In this podcast, David gives several examples of lotteries that he accidentally was a part of and then intentionally was a part of.  He then pivots into the recent, record Powerball lottery prize of $1.5 billion dollars.

You and I already have a winning ticket concerning our life worth, that includes our net worth.

However, many of us carry around stress based on the ever-elusive search for the answer to the question: “How much do I have?”  And the answer often comes back- “Not enough.”

Yet what God and life seem to say to us is:

“I have already given you sufficient supply for what you need at this moment.” 

If you don’t believe you have a sufficient supply, then listen to this podcast for more details on the following 5 Capitals, that we see in the Bible, that each of us possesses. These are listed from lowest value- according to Jesus -to highest value.

5. Financial Capital.  

This is simply the money we have available to invest, measured in dollars and cents, pounds and pennies, etc.We are most familiar with this one, because we work with it every day. It’s neither good nor bad, it’s simply a resource we have available to invest.

4. Intellectual Capital.  

This is the creativity and knowledge we have available to invest, measured in concepts and ideas. This is of higher value than financial capital, because you can’t create ideas and creativity simply by spending a lot of money. Jesus possessed an astonishing level of intellectual capital, which he used often in his mission.

3. Physical Capital

.  This is the time and energy we have available to invest, measured in hours and minutes. It comprises the time we make available for tasks, projects, and relationships, as well as the capacity we have to use that time. Our overall health comes into play here, because it greatly affects our ability to invest our time and energy.

2. Relational Capital.  This is the “relational equity” we have available to invest, measured in family and friends,the quantity and quality of our relationships with others. Having family and friends is extremely valuable, and the amount of relational capital we have accrues to us in many ways, from our overall sense of well-being and happiness to more tangible ways.

1. Spiritual Capital

.  This is the “spiritual equity” we have available to invest, measured in faith, love, peace, joy, wisdom and power.We see people astonished at Jesus’ teaching, because it was filled with authority and wisdom, and his miracles, because they expressed a degree of God’s power that they’d never seen before. Jesus was “rich” in spiritual capital. That’s what he “had” that gave him the resources necessary to carry out his mission, which was to open up the doors of the kingdom of God to everyone.

It seems that Jesus’ whole mission was to help people prosper in spiritual capital -and through spiritual capital, all the other capitals will grow.  His message was that through relationship with him anyone could become “wealthy” in spiritual capital.

The life Jesus calls us to is one of investing in these five capitals, which yields an “abundant life” that flourishes and blesses others because it is “rich toward God.”
