Episode Synopsis

In this message from 2 Corinthians 9:6–11, Pastor Matt unpacks what it means to be a cheerful giver and why our approach to money reveals the true condition of our hearts. While Jesus didn’t talk about money more than any other subject, he did speak about it often—because money is never just about money. How we think about, spend, and manage our resources points to where our trust lies and what we value most.This sermon explores:Paul’s teaching that God supplies seed for sowing and multiplies generosity.Why Jesus warned about money’s power to become an idol.How money often becomes a false measure of our worth and a cover for shame.The call to give sacrificially, not just from abundance, but from trust in God’s provision.Join us as we learn how generosity frees us from the grip of money, reveals our faith in Christ, and leads us into deeper joy.
