How should I relate to money? Why is greed a bad thing? Because money does not buy happiness or heaven! Greed and covetousness are responsible for some of the worst evils our world has seen. How many families have been destroyed over fighting about inheritance dues? How many relationships have been sacrificed for the time, effort and stress that goes into the accumulation of wealth? How many people have traded their personal integrity in an effort to become wealthy through deception or fraud? How many people have no time to think about spiritual things because of their preoccupation with this world's financial round of activities? Simply put, greed and covetousness hurt people.

This world is a mess! Some people ask how God can be good when so many people suffer. But what if God has appointed us as managers or stewards of His blessings? What if we are supposed to be His proxies for alleviating suffering? If we choose to mismanage God's blessings, others will suffer. This has nothing to do with God's character and everything to do with our characters. Jesus said that you can only have one master. If we choose to live for ourselves, we will use His blessings to benefit ourselves over others and at the expense of others. This is true of all types of blessings: financial, spiritual, relational etc. When it comes to learning how to focus on spiritual growth, the first step is to begin looking away from self: Upwards toward God and outwards toward other people.

How to avoid being unprepared for the coming of Jesus is the most important topic that you could occupy your mind with at this time of earth's history. The coming of Jesus is our final victory. This is good news! But we only get one shot at making the necessary spiritual preparation for the return of Jesus. How should we live while we wait for Jesus? To answer this question, Adrian Webster will unpack what we can learn from the story of the unwise virgins. This Biblical parable gives us insight into who will be ready to meet Jesus when He returns.

The Kingdom of God's success is guaranteed because of what Jesus has done in history. The big question is, Do you see the value of the Kingdom of God? If you do, then you will realise that the best thing you can do with your life is to invest in the Kingdom of God. Giving up our lives for the Kingdom of God is not a big price to pay once we comprehend that what God is offering us far outweighs whatever this world promises!
