On Sunday, Pastor Joe delivered Part 2 of his *My Heart’s Treasure* sermon as he continued through the Gospel of Luke, reading from Luke 12:22-34. Last week, Jesus shared the Parable of the Rich Fool and reminded us that if we are rich in things but not rich toward God, we are missing what truly matters. This week’s passage picks up with Jesus explaining why.

Jesus tells us, "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life.” (Luke 12:22) He points to the birds of the air, the lilies of the field and even the grass, reminding us that God cares for His creation. If God takes care of these things, how much more will He care for us?

We don't need to live our lives consumed by anxiety, worry or fear. Instead, we are called to put our faith and trust in God rather than placing our trust in the things of this world. Jesus reminds us, “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” (Luke 12:34)

Pastor Joe challenged us to consider: Is God my treasure? And if not, what am I putting above Him? He also challenged everyone this week to pray Deuteronomy 30:6 and ask God to change your heart, to help you love Him with all your heart and all your soul and to make Him the treasure of your heart.

You can listen to Pastor Joe's full sermon, "My Heart's Treasure, Part 2," on the Sermons of Franklin County podcast, available on your favorite podcast app, starting Tuesday, September 1st.

On Sunday, Pastor Joe continued his sermon series on the Parables of Jesus from the Gospel of Luke, reading from Luke 12:13–21.

In this passage, someone in the crowd asks Jesus to tell his brother to divide their inheritance with him. How often do we find ourselves focused on money, possessions and security, just as this person was? Jesus reminds us that life does not consist in the abundance of our possessions. Instead, we are called to see what we have as gifts from God and to give back generously.

Jesus then shares the parable of the rich man who wanted more and more possessions. We are reminded that everything we have is temporary and ultimately belongs to God. Our blessings come from Him, and our true security can only be found in Him. Jesus calls the person who is rich in possessions but not rich toward God a fool.

Is Jesus your treasure? Do you want to use your gifts, talents and blessings to share Him with others? Pastor Joe challenged us this week to take inventory and journal our week. Be honest, does your week show that Jesus is your treasure, or would people see that something else has taken that place? This week, also take time to read Galatians 4 or Romans 8 and meditate on what it means to be a child of God, where our true identity and security are found, and the incredible inheritance we have through Christ.

You can listen to Pastor Joe's full sermon, "My Heart's Treasure," on the Sermons of Franklin County podcast, available on your favorite podcast app.
