Did you know that Jesus talked more about money than any other subject? In the Gospels one out of every ten verses – 288 in all – deal with money. Sixteen of our Lord’s thirty-eight parables address the same issue. The Bible offers approximately five hundred verses on prayer, less than five hundred verses on faith, but more than two thousand verses about money and possessions.

“…’Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.’”

— Luke 12:15

Lord Jesus, deliver us from materialism and make us good stewards. In your holy name we pray. Amen.
