Life's hard, you've got real stuff coming at you. Worry is going to come your way, so the question is: what do you do with it? Jesus gives us a compelling, 4-part argument against worry, and then an eternally significant alternative.

No matter who we are, our hearts are prone to developing a weird relationship with money. So, in this passage, Jesus addresses our money, not because he cares so much about our money, but because he cares about our hearts.
