A proposito di questo titolo
Sermon: Two Masters
Date: January 11
Scripture: Matthew 6:19-24
Speaker: Paul Walker
We who live in consumeristic cultures must remain aware that we live in a context that is perpetually trying to get us to be discontent with what we have. We are conditioned to chase after more. We are trained to get our value from money, possessions, and material gains. Jesus tells us that “You cannot serve both God and money (Mammon).”(v24) Historically, “mammon” is the name of a powerful deity who uses wealth to destroy people. It has the power to create hunger and discontentment in us, to get us to perpetually want more. Ultimately mammon competes with God for our heart’s devotion. So what does it mean for us to serve only one master? What are we giving ultimate allegiance to in our lives? Can we trust that Jesus is a better Lord than Mammon?
Desired Outcome: To explore the false messages of our consumeristic culture — and to challenge people to trust that Jesus offers us so much more.
