October 9

Matthew 6:2-4, 24-34

The passage today comes from the sermon on the mount. This sermon, which runs chapters 5-7 is the longest single teaching that we have. Jesus repeatedly challenges our thoughts and views on life in this sermon. In these particular passages he challenges how we view and handle our money.

How do we give? Do we give in such a way that it draws attention to ourselves? If so, we have received our reward.

Do we serve money as a master? He compares worship of God with worship of money.

Do we worry about the things we own? He tells us to trust God and center our lives in the moment.
