This week’s message discusses the folly of pursuing material wealth and the importance of being 'rich toward God.' The parable of the rich man from Luke 12:13-21 underscores the transient nature of worldly possessions and the necessity of focusing on eternal values. Jesus calls us to forsake covetousness and seek to be rich towards God.


Consider these questions as you listen to this week's message:


1. What key lesson does Jesus teach about wealth and possessions in the parable found in Luke 12?


2. How does the text interpret the saying "you can't take it with you" in the context of pursuing material wealth versus spiritual richness?


3. In the discussion of Luke 12, how is the concept of God's sovereignty over life and death used to illustrate the foolishness of prioritizing material possessions over spiritual values?
