Gambling your money — whether at a slot machine or online with your fantasy team — is not just unwise. It is sin. Pastor John gives seven reasons why.
Fantasy sports gambling is a multi-billion dollar industry in the United States. And a young man, a listener to the podcast who wishes to remain anonymous, wrote specifically to ask about fantasy football gambling.
“Hello Pastor John, thank you for the podcast! I’m a big sports fan, and I absolutely love playing fantasy football as a hobby. I started out playing one free season in an online league, but as of late, I’ve been playing daily fantasy sports games on DraftKings and FanDuel, a form of gambling which costs money in entry fees. The bets I place are rather modest at $20–$50 a week. I have not found a lot of Christian resources on this topic. Is modest online sports gambling sinful?
