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.

God has always called his people to be priests—offering sacrifices of thanks, praise, and devotion. In Christ, the ultimate sacrifice for sin has already been made, once for all, by our Great High Priest. Now, as God’s chosen people, we live as priests in a new way. Like the healed leper who returned to Jesus with praise (Luke 17:11–19), we bring our sacrifices: hearts broken by repentance, lips lifted in praise, prayers of faith, and gifts of our time, talents, and treasures. Worship trains us for this priestly life so that, here, there, and everywhere, we live as holy priests—offering our whole lives in gratitude to the God who has made us his own.
