More Than the More: Hope in the Generous King | Luke 12 & Matthew 6
Description
We live in a culture overflowing with stuff—but starving for peace.
Storage units, constant upgrades, credit-card debt, the hedonic treadmill… it all reveals something deeper: we want more, but it’s never enough.
Into that world, Jesus says,
“Watch out for greed. Life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” (Luke 12:15 )
This week, Pastor David exposes the Lie of Scarcity, reveals the Truth of the Father’s Abundance, and anchors us in the Hope of the Generous King—a King who became poor so that we might become rich in God.
🔥 In this message, you’ll discover:
✅ Why our culture is trapped in the “hedonic treadmill”
✅ How the scarcity story began in Genesis 3
✅ Why greed is a spiritual symptom, not a financial issue
✅ How Jesus frees us from anxiety, fear, and “bigger barn” living
✅ Why Advent begins with hope—because our King is generous
✅ Practical practices for contentment, simplicity, and generosity this week
