    Should It Be All About Me

    Contributed by Rick Gillespie- Mobley on Jan 21, 2019
     | 6,967 views

    This is a message on giving. The goal is to help us discover how making the world all about us keeps us from loving God and loving each other. It involves evaluating what tithing is all about.

    Should It Really Be All About Me 1/20/2019 Ecclesiastes 5:10-20 and 1 Timothy 6:3-10 Luke 12 Do you know anyone who thinks the world revolves around them. They actually believe the purpose of all that God has created is to make and to keep them happy. Our society constantly ...read more

    How money and stuff can get a hold and keep us from having a satisfying life in Christ

    How do we find contentment? Well the text talks to us this morning about how great contentment is, it tells us it is of great worth, it is of a great value when it’s paired with godliness. Now I think in order for us to be content we need to look at what makes us discontented. So just in ...read more

    Are you a malcontent or contented with godliness.

    1Tim 6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

    Looking out for number one is not always the best idea. Let God look out for you. He has the best in mind for us if we can only accept that He knows best. Beware of self-deceit.

    NEVER SATISFIED This could be the slogan of those who persist in following the deceitful lust of the flesh. Reaping what we Sow, even when it is done in Deceit. 1 Tim. 6:6-8 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 6 Pero gran ganancia es la piedad con contentamiento. (RVG04) 7 For we ...read more

    We celebrate Thanksgiving, but do we live it?

    Today would be a wonderful day for Americans to take stock of themselves and just count their blessings and then shut up. We are the whiniest bunch of louts to be found. Our poorest are richer than a great many people in the world for indeed I know of very few places in the world where the poor ...read more

    Better to be content than wealthy, but better yet to be content and good stewards of what God has given us.

    Contentment and Money (I Timothy 6:6-10, 17-19) 1. Study after study show that the world’s happiest people are not from the richest nations; once basic needs are met, it is more a matter of relationships, family, and thankfulness; the topic most newlywed couples argue over is money. 2.

    The apostle Paul had something to say about that in a letter he wrote to a young preacher named Timothy. He told Timothy that we should be content with what God has given us. Happiness. Contentment.

    "Sharing Our Wealth" Be content with what God has given you and share his blessings with others. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:6-8 6 Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us ...read more

    Whether poor or rich or in the middle, all of us have to determine our standard of living. So who or what is determining your standard of living? Who or what is influencing your financial decisions and the life you’re living?

    Determining a Standard of Living 1 Timothy 6:7-13 There was a story which appeared in the news about a woman who had won the lottery. Before winning, she worked long, hard hours but earned just enough money to cover each month’s bills. The years of toil and worry had taken a toll on her face ...read more

    Christian Atheist: Money Series

    Do we really trust in God? Do we really trust in our money? Do we say we believe in God and yet live as though He doesn’t exist? Do we say we trust in God and in His security and yet live as though we trust only in money?

    This sermon is based off of a few ideas in Craig Groeschel’s book “The Christian Atheist: Believing in God but Living as if He Doesn’t Exist.” Zondervan, 2010. ISBN: 9780310332220 CHRISTIAN ATHEIST: MONEY 1 Timothy 6:6-10, 17-19 INTRODUCTION… “In God We ...read more

    Sometimes people think that that there is no place for talk of money from the pulpit but the Scriptures speak about money, giving and generosity from beginning to end. This message looks at thoughts on generosity from the Book.

    This is week two or three of Money Month at Cornerstone, depending on how you count. Two weeks ago we at least gave a nod to the fact that this is the month that we deal with Money at Cornerstone when I preached on A Generous Easter, and then last week was our 20th Anniversary and I preached on ...read more
