Most Americans believe that money is what brings them significance and security and yet with all the wealth that there is in our world we make really poor choices with how we handle money. As Christians, if you’re going to talk about money you should go to the Word of God and perhaps the greatest authority on the subject that you can find.
Solomon would be the best place to start as he was a very wealthy man. He brought in about 20 million dollars a year in gold from just ruling in Israel. He was so wealthy that when the Queen of Sheba saw his kingdom she said, “The half has not been told.â€
By starting our series with Solomon's insight about money we can begin to view money from a Biblical perspective. I want to encourage you to handle your money matters in a Christ-like way. I want to help you grow in money matters so that you can be the best possible steward of what God has entrusted to you.
You will never find true significance and satisfaction on this earth. The deepest desires within us are for being with God in heaven and those desires will never materialize on earth through the earthly riches. The first lesson I want you to get in this series is that wealth is not the answer to your problems in this life.
Money never satisfies, it rarely simplifies, and it always perishes.
