Simple Gifts: True Treasure (Contemporary)

Today in worship we continue our sermon series, “Simple Gifts.” Based on the familiar Shaker folk song, throughout this series we will remember God has given us many gifts through his son, Jesus Christ, and in God’s Creation. As we reflect with gratitude on those simple gifts, we’ll consider what it means to give back a portion of our own simple gifts through our worship, giving, and serving. We will remember that it is the simple gifts we can give back to God that help reorient us to faith in God and God’s Kingdom. Today, we will think about Matthew 6:19-24 and God’s call to serve God alone. When we consider the way we spend our time and our resources, we will see these things reflect our heart’s priority. Today, we will consider what it means to find our truest treasures in God’s kingdom and not in our earthly possessions or reputation.
