Key Theme:
Jesus calls us to be watchful against religious righteousness, re-center our hearts on Christ, and engage in spiritual practices (like giving) as acts of worship and communion, not performance.
Key Application:
Before you give, pause and ask: “Am I doing this to be seen by others—or to draw near to God and reflect His generosity?” Then give quietly, generously, and joyfully, as an act of worship.
Key Verses:
1 Corinthians 3:8 “He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor.”
Key Questions:
1. What are you laboring for? What wage do you hope for?
2. How does my generosity reflect my trust in God's provision and my awareness of His generosity toward me?
3. In what ways can I practice spiritual devotion (like giving, praying, or serving) more privately and humbly—so that my focus stays on God and not on myself?
Sermon Scripture for next week: Read Matthew 6:5-15

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
