Whether you are struggling with the pressures of scarcity mindset or the temptation to "show off" in a culture obsessed with status, this sermon offers a path to true freedom. Discover why Jesus called the successful businessman a "fool" and learn the ancient Christian practices—like secret generosity and daily gratitude—that can break the power of money over your life. It’s time to stop building bigger barns and start becoming rich towards God.
