10.9.22 SOTM (wk14) Treasures, Heaven, Money, & Stuff - a podcast by George Stull

In Matthew 6:19-24, Jesus addresses our hearts about our relationship with money and heaven. George continued this journey through the Sermon On The Mount and talked about how "storing up treasures in heaven" was an invitation to live our lives right here, right now with length, breadth, depth & substance.

We also heard from Scott Reall, of Restore Small Groups and the author of Journey To Freedom, about healing communities that are happening in places around the world including Scotland and Tanzania. You can find out more about Restore HERE

We'd love for you to join us in person at one of our Sunday gatherings--10a at Gower Elementary.

SLIDES/QUOTES George read in our gathering:

“Heaven is a place where God’s purposes for the future are stored up. It isn’t where they are meant to stay so that one would need to go to heaven to enjoy them; it is where they are kept safe for the day when they will become a reality on earth.”

-N.T. Wright, Surprised By Hope

Jesus wants us to know that we don’t need all the things or experiences we think we do. Simplicity creates margins and spaces and openness in our lives. Simplicity asks us to let go of the tangle of wants so we can receive the simple gifts of life that cannot be taken away. Simplicity invites us into daily pleasures that can open us to God, who is present in them all.

-Adele Ahlberg Calhoun
