Matthew 6:19-24

Money is an essential tool for accessing the necessities of life. But if we’re not careful, it can also become our master – a role designed for Jesus only. We must choose: Will Jesus be my Master, or will money? And when I choose Jesus, I choose His way – a life of generosity, investing in His Kingdom and laying up treasures in heaven instead of treasures on earth.

Matthew 6.19-24

We are worshipers and what we do with our money is a key indicator of what we treasure in our hearts. Jesus pulls no punches; saying we cannot serve God and money.

Mathew 6: 19-24

Money is necessary for all members of society; Christian and non-Christian alike. The way money is viewed and used, however, should look very different within the Christian community. Money should be used for God’s purposes as He is the ultimate source and owner. The way we steward His money ultimately demonstrates where we put our trust.

1 Corinthians 13: 1-3

After the first encounter between Jesus and Peter after Peter’s epic failure of denial, Jesus bypasses a discussion on the actual denial (or action) and asks a penetrating heart question: “Do You Love Me?” It’s a strange question because Peter had already been following Jesus for three years and given up many comforts to serve with Jesus. Now he was faced to consider his motives. This is the theme of this weekend’s message. Do we love Jesus? Why and how much? Perhaps more importantly, would we be willing to change the motivation behind some of the “things we do” for Him (and others) to love rather than habit, ought, routine or fear. It makes a difference. And it’s important.

Psalms 13:1-6

Prayer in Groaning Times - Dr. Gerry Breshears

1 Timothy 2:1-8

Corporate prayer is an important means of grace because through it God grows our relationship with Him through Christ, He grows our relationships with other Christians, and He leads people to salvation in the name of Jesus.

1 Timothy 2:1-8

Corporate prayer is a means of grace because it is a God-given way for the Church to seek Him together, experience His presence, express unity, and receive spiritual blessing through shared dependence and intercession. While personal prayer is vital, praying together uniquely builds up the Church, invites God’s power and presence in a collective way, and unifies us around Christ’s mission to seek and to save the lost.
