Jesus the Great Divider: Rich Toward God Week 5 | Feb 1st - Grace Church (NOLA - Jefferson)

Описание: #NOLA #ChristianCommunity #biblestudy

What does it really mean to be rich toward God in everyday life—not just in theory? In Week 5 of our “Rich Toward God” series, we walk through Jesus’ teaching on money, possessions, and the heart, learning how to trust God with what we have and invest in what truly lasts.
​

In this message, you’ll learn:

Why life does not consist in the abundance of possessions (Luke 12).

How to see everything you have as something God has entrusted to you.
​
Practical ways to honor God with your finances, time, and relationships.

How generosity can free your heart from anxiety and greed.


Key Scriptures:

Luke 12:49-53
Isaiah 53:3-8
Luke 18:31-32


Key Chapters:

00:00 – Welcome & opening prayer
02:00 – Scripture reading: Luke 12 and Jesus’ warning about greed
07:30 – What does it mean to be “rich toward God”?
14:00 – God owns it all: stewardship, not ownership
​21:00 – Money as both hazard and help in discipleship
​27:30 – Practicing generosity in real life (time, talents, treasure)
​33:30 – Response, prayer, and next steps
​

Whether you’re just starting to think about generosity or you’ve been walking with Jesus for years, this sermon will challenge and encourage you to live “rich toward God” instead of merely rich in this world.
