The Book of Philippians

In the New Testament, Jesus talked more times about money than He did about heaven and hell combined. Shouldn't believers follow this same model while escaping culture's money trap? The world distorts the dynamics of money, creating an idol that destroys families and relationships, while boasting that all money matters should be kept private and away from the church. The Apostle Paul admonishes the wealthy churches for their lack of generosity to building God's Kingdom, while praising the extreme poverty-ridden churches for their lavish generosity toward this great commission. Listen as Pastor John corrects some scriptural misunderstandings regarding the believer's tithes and offerings to the church. He warns us of the spiritual dangers of holding on tightly to that golden calf and reminds us that God's blessings will multiply when we live by His sacred principles of biblical stewardship.
