413. The Freedom You Long For Series (Week 2): Greed and Generosity // Andre Tan

The City SG Podcast

“Living the way of freedom that Jesus teaches is incompatible with the overconsumption prevalent in our society; the two are mutually exclusive. You must choose between God and Mammon.” - @andrejosiah In week 2 of our sermon series “The Freedom You Long For”, Ps. Andre spoke on Greed & Generosity, and how there is a war over generosity in our lives. In scripture, Jesus constantly warns us against all kinds of greed, because greed leads us into an insatiable desire and pursuit of wealth that comes at the expense of our health, relationships, and devotion to him. As humans, we have a tendency to hoard because we never remain contented with what we have, but God reminds us that life does not consist in an abundance of possessions. Instead, we can find freedom from a spirit of greed through living the way of Jesus, one that’s fully dependent on God being our provider. May we live lives of generosity by living rooted in the assurance of God’s abundant love for us.
