How have you seen money being a competitor with Jesus in people’s lives today?

[Austin]

Even as Christians we tend to separate our money from the lordship of Jesus. therefore neglecting His principles.

[Austin]

I see people often putting money before Jesus. For example, some work so much to make more money that they have no time for God or church. Others are afraid to give to the church or help those in need because they worry, they won’t have enough for themselves. Social media also makes it hard, as it often pushes people to want more things instead of focusing on what’s truly important, like their faith and relationships.

[Austin]

Shopping and managing possessions is a big time stealer and then people don’t have time for God

[Austin]

We can get consumed with working hard to gain more and more money and possessions but forsake the things of God.

[Austin]

I feel that people are often deceived into believing in lotteries and quick-get rich schemes as a source of fulfillment. when God owns and controls everything we should just surrender to his will, it would probably make us much better at giving to our Churches and the needy.
