146: Luke 16 | Wealth and Wisdom: Generosity in the Kingdom
Discussion Points:
The Shrewd Manager đź’Ľ
Worldly Wisdom for Kingdom Purposes: Jesus challenges us to use our resources wisely to invest in eternal matters, not just earthly gain. Self-Reflection: Are we using what we have—money, time, or talents—to serve God or to serve ourselves?
Heart Check ❤️
Money as a Master: “No one can serve two masters” (Luke 16:13). How does our relationship with money reflect where our heart truly lies? Generosity vs. Greed: How can we shift from holding onto our possessions to using them to bless others and glorify God?
The Pharisees’ Reaction 🙄
Scoffing at Truth: The Pharisees’ love for money blinded them to the kingdom's call. How do we ensure we’re not falling into the same trap? Public vs. Private Righteousness: Are our actions driven by public recognition or a genuine desire to honour God?
The Rich Man and Lazarus ⚖️
Eternal Consequences: The parable reminds us of the stark contrast between selfishness and selflessness. Celebrating Generosity: How can we better reflect God’s heart by looking after the vulnerable around us, especially during the Christmas season?
Reflection for Action 🤔
Who are the “Lazaruses” in your life—those in need, overlooked, or marginalized? How can you extend compassion and generosity to them this Christmas?
