Rabbi Daniel Lapin, known as “America’s Rabbi,” joined Rabbi Rami Goldberg on the Biblical Money podcast to deliver a bold message: making money is not just moral—it’s a spiritual act. Challenging the common belief that poverty equals virtue, Lapin argued that the heart of business is serving others. When you earn through honest commerce, you’re not taking from anyone—you’re adding value, dignity, and connection. “Making money is fundamentally a way of serving God’s other children,” he said, reframing business as a godly pursuit rooted in trust and community.The conversation highlighted how ancient Jewish wisdom affirms entrepreneurship as holy ground, while also addressing modern struggles like poverty, isolation, and skepticism around wealth. Lapin emphasized that success should never be a source of guilt if it flows from service, pointing to the Hebrew language’s unique framing of earning versus obtaining money. He also introduced his new book, The Holistic You, which ties prosperity to a balanced life of faith, family, and contribution. The takeaway was clear: business, done with integrity and purpose, isn’t just about profit—it’s one of the most spiritual callings a person can embrace.
