Money, sex, and power. These are three good gifts of God, three opportunities to show his supreme value and worth. Yet they can also be three dangerous pitfalls. In these areas of life most of all, we reveal what matters most. What did God intend for us when He created these appealing and often all-consuming things that compete for the affections of our heart? There is destruction when money, sex, and power become the object of our devotion. But when they are rightly seen as blessings from the One who is worthy of our devotion, there is great beauty. Over the next three weeks, we’ll see what misplaced devotion can look like and do to us, but also what could happen in and through us if we were radically devoted to rightness.
