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.

Stones by the Jordan (Joshua 4:19–24)
After miraculously crossing the Jordan River into the Promised Land, the Israelites set up twelve stones from the riverbed as a lasting memorial. These stones were a visible reminder of God’s power, provision, and faithfulness—and a call for future generations to revere and trust Him. In this sermon, we reflect on how remembering what God has done in the past strengthens our unity and shapes how we move forward in faith. As Mount Lebanon nears 100 years of ministry, we are invited to set up our own “stones of remembrance,” celebrating how God has led us and trusting Him to lead us still.
