The Generosity FactorMessage 2 of 6 The Antidote for Materialism

Dr. McKay Caston, Pastor of Preaching and Leadership

TODAYS KEY BIBLE PASSAGE:

19Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in andsteal, 20but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thievesdo not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.22The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, 23but if youreye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is thedarkness!

24No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted tothe one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. (ESV)

THE BIG IDEA: ________________________________________________________________________

MY NOTES:

QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION & DISCUSSION1) In what way has your life been affected by the plague of materialism)?

2) What does Jesus mean when says that my heart follows my money? In other words, what is therelationship between faith and finances?

3) How is generosity the antidote to materialism?

4) What fuels, or motivates, genuine from the heart, grace-inspired generosity? So, what does it mean ifmy giving is motivated by duty or guilt, or if I am not giving at all?

5) In view of the gospel, what practical steps toward generosity can you take this week?
