In the story of the rich young ruler, Jesus reveals a trap many of us fall into: the love of wealth and the illusion of security it gives. To gain true, abundant life, Jesus calls us to let go of what holds us captive—our possessions, our comforts, and anything that keeps us from fully following Him. True freedom comes when we step out of the trap and into His Kingdom, trusting Him above all else. A sermon on Luke 18:18-30.

Jesus tells a surprising story about a dishonest manager and a generous master—not to praise dishonesty, but to reveal the genius of living with kingdom-minded wisdom. The master’s generosity opens the door for the servant’s shrewd action, and together they teach us something vital: God entrusts us with his resources not to hoard, but to handle them carefully and purposefully for his mission. Shrewd stewardship means using earthly things in ways that make an eternal difference—managing what God gives with wisdom, creativity, and a heart aligned to the generosity of our Master. A sermon on Luke 16:1-13
