Smyrna: Some Things Money Cannot Buy Series

based on 30 ratings

Money may actually distract us from Kingdom priorities. Some things money cannot buy are compassion for the needy, passion for the lost, and love for one another.

I begin this morning with an invocation from my favorite poet, the bard of Baltimore, Ogden Nash, who addressed our favorite god in prayer: “Oh, money, money, money; some may think thee holy. But I cannot figure out how thou goest out so fast and how thou comest in so slowly.” Ogden Nash, ...read more

The Lord had three things to commend this church for, but the rebuke brought focus to the very real problem of loosing your love for Christ.
