Is It Wrong To Be Rich? Series

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 11, 2018

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 29, 2019

Our world focuses on more, more, more. Paul, in his letter to young pastor Timothy, coaches contentment, gratefulness, and sharing, building up riches in heaven.

"all The Church Cares About Is Money." Series

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Oct 7, 2019

Money is powerful! The amount of money we have allows or prevents us from having or doing certain things. Jesus understand the power of money as a prime competitor for our hearts. The church echoes Jesus' warning as we see what he was willing to pay for our eternity.

We learn very early on in life that when you walk into a store and you see something that you would like to buy, what is one of the first things that you look at? You look at the price tag. You want to know how much money that thing is going to cost you and if you have enough money then to buy ...read more

For The Love Of Money?

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jul 29, 2019

Ever wonder at what line a Christian crosses that makes money a trap and sin in their spiritual walk with Jesus? In this sermon I am going to outline a basic truth: putting trust in money and wealth and not God is a sin.

Dough And Bucks

Contributed by Terry Melton on Aug 4, 2019

Looking at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather the "dough" and "bucks" that man created, and hold too "dear" to our hearts, for the love of money is the root to all kinds of evil.

Two bucks.” Today, we will have a look at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather when we hold the ...read more
