Christmas Guilt12/14/08
-
Speaker – Greg Boyd
- Topics – Generosity, Judgment, Money, Guilt
- As Kingdom people, we always want to be aware of the dangers of consumerism and irresponsible spending. However, if we take on too much responsibility for fixing the world we can fall into guilt and become judgmental. Jesus modeled a balance between responsibility to those who are less fortunate, and the freedom we have to celebrate and share the good things that God has given us.

Shrewd for the Kingdom11/30/08
-
Speaker – Greg Boyd
- Topics – Generosity, Money, Faithfulness
- What does it mean to use material resources in a godly way? All of our money and “stuff” will pass away but the relationships we have with people have real eternal value. God wants us to use our resources to advance his Kingdom rather than our own.

The Great Reversal10/30/05
-
Speaker – Greg Boyd
- Topics – Kingdom of God, Money, Power, Blessings
- In Mary's song, she proclaims that God has touched the poor but has rejected the rich. That he has chosen to humble people of power while lifting up the humble. In other words, those who look like they deserve the blessings of God miss out on them. The Kingdom of God is one that is upside down. It is the great reversal that does not make sense to our power-hungry and money-crazed world. God's view of success evaluates life much differently. The world sees money and power as the sign of success. In the Kingdom, success is defined by what you do with them.
The Mary-Blessed Kingdom10/16/05
-
Speaker – Greg Boyd
- Topics – Money, Blessings
- Greg contrasted the difference between world ecomonics and kingdom economics using something he called The Mary Principle. The Mary Principle simply stated is, the greatest blessing is found in blessing others. He based all of this by first discussing what Mary being blessed did not mean. True blessing in the kingdom means being used by God for his purposes.
Walking Like a Zombie to the Grave06/27/04
-
Speaker – Sandra Unger
- Topics – Discipleship, Money, Pain & Suffering, Sacrifice
- Sandra challenged us to go against the grain of the so-called American Dream and the materialism inherent in it. She also encouraged us to be critical of how we're already being influenced by it and to allow God to work on all of the broken areas of our lives so that we can make an impact.
Fasting with Our Finances02/15/04
-
Speaker – Greg Boyd
- Money
- The Bible speaks more about greed and injustice against those who are poor than any other particular sin. We are the richest country in the world, and we are fooling ourselves if we do not think that the words "to whom much is given much is required" apply to us. Greg was concerned that we not be trapped in guilt; at the same time, we must evaluate our habits and priorities in light of the war zone in which we live.
