2 Corinthians 8-9: Generosity

On top of a mountain, with his disciples listening in and a crowd on every side, Jesus tells us:

‘Do not store up yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break
in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and
where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.’
(Matt 6:19-21)

Money: the way we treat money shows us our hearts. As we look at 2 Corinthians 8-9, we’ll see how to have a
heart like God’s, who is so generous to us so that we can be generous like him.

In Christ we have been brought to fullness, we have everything we need in Christ. Therefore, we should see to it that we aren't taken captive by the empty philosophies…
God reveals the greatest mystery of the universe to us. It's by this mystery that God grows and matures to be like Christ.
Jesus is God’s beloved Son in, through, and for whom everything was made, out of overflowing love.
The truth is that Christians have a future hope and this hope should shape everything. Paul shows us how it shapes the Christian life, particularly in prayer and encouragement.
Jesus meets a man who has a problem- but then Jesus surprises him by healing his bigger problem.
We all face suffering and difficulty in life. Can we have any hope in the face of that?

We all face suffering and difficulty in life. Can we have any hope in the face of that?
We're always wanting more. More money, better holidays, a newer car, improved family situation, better friends… But when is it ever enough? Jesus sees through all of that and shows…
Jesus offers us true rest for this life and eternity
