Money Matters

Family Church NYC

In today’s installment of the “Money Matters” sermon series, Eric Maciel delves into the profound impact of how we handle our finances on our spiritual lives. Using a personal anecdote about home improvement projects, Eric compares the process of stripping paint from a door to the way Jesus’ teachings about money can strip away our superficial values to reveal deeper truths. Citing Matthew 6:19-24, Eric emphasizes that where our treasure lies, there our heart is also. He explains that our treasures, eyes, and obedience reveal our true values and loyalties. Earthly wealth is temporary and deceptive, while heavenly treasures are eternal and fulfilling. Ultimately, Eric challenges listeners to evaluate what lies within their hearts and to prioritize generosity and devotion to God over material wealth.
