The Scriptures I focus on in this episode are found in Matthew 13:22 and Colossians 3:2. Jesus in the parable of the Sower speaks about the thorns as the cares of this life and the riches and pleasures and describes them as the deceitfulness of wealth. Paul wrote to the Colossians that they set their minds on things above, not on earthly things.

We have the ability to focus on God or on something else, but not both at the same time. One of the biggest challenges for us is being sucked in by the deceitfulness of wealth.

The episode is about us making the main thing the main thing - i.e. God and the things of God.

To give or not to give, that is the question. Around us in our cities and places where we live, in fact wherever we go, there are needs. We are faced almost daily with the question of whether or not to give. We get some help I believe from what we see in Acts 3:1-10. Peter and John did not have money, but had the gift of healing from the Holy Spirit.

We are to give from what we have. We cannot give from what we don't have.

Les Brown has a quote about potential: “The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry out their dream.”

We look at the parable of the talents (bags of gold) in Matthew 25 and focus on the servant who was given one bag of gold.

His view of the master was wrong, he was described as lazy, and he did nothing with his talent. He hid it in the ground.

Listen to how this ends. This is not how we want it to end with us.
