Don’t Be a Financial Fool – October 24, 2021

Scripture: Luke 12:13-21  15 And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.”

This first sermon, based on Jesus’ parable of the rich fool in Luke 12:13-21, warns listeners not to make the acquisition of money and things their ultimate priority. The classic movie, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Tennessee Williams,  tells the story of a rich and powerful old man called “Big Daddy.” Tragically, in the end Big Daddy, like Jesus’ rich fool, was absolutely bankrupt in things that really matter. The bottom line: don’t let this happen to you.
