We live in a turbulent economy. And with an election coming up, it is hard to determine what the markets are going to do.
So how do we keep our investments safe?
Gold salesmen would have us believe that buying gold will help us stabilize and control and safeguard our assets. Maybe they're right.
Others believe that in a time of political uncertainty, we should use bitcoin. Since bitcoin is decentralized and not controlled by a single government or bank, it will protect us from inflation or governmental unrest. Right?!?
Throw in some others options like the stock market and mutual funds and real estate and now we're completely confused.
Are any investments truly safe?
This weekend at CrossWalk Church, we're continue our Investigating Jesus message series. In this week's lesson a rich young ruler asks Jesus about protecting his future.
To be clear, the wealthy ruler was not asking Jesus financial advice as much as he was asking about security for the future. Jesus' response was SELL, SELL, SELL!
He said, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Luke 18:22b, NIV
It seems like Jesus is suggesting financial suicide. But he was actually offering this man a certain future.
Please join us this Sunday at either our Midtown or Laveen location and find the one thing that Jesus offers that will help you enjoy the treasures of heaven and a certain future.
