August 3, 2025 Sermon - Being Rich Toward God

This Sunday's Inspirational Message is:

Being Rich Toward God

Today, we're diving into Luke 12:13-21. This passage hits hard on greed and what really matters in life. Jesus gets pulled into a family squabble over inheritance, but He turns it into a powerful lesson: beware of all forms of greed because life isn't about piling up stuff.

He shares the parable of the rich fool who hoards his wealth, plans a comfy retirement, but dies that night, leaving it all behind. The big idea?

We'll explore this in a conversational style, blending insights from the text with practical applications for today—like how to handle money, avoid materialism, and invest in eternity.

Action points:

1. First, audit your priorities this week—where's your heart?
2. Second, practice generosity; give to someone in need.
3. Third, pray for a God-centered view of possessions.
