The rich young ruler and Zacchaeus had something in common: they both wanted salvation. One got to hear "salvation has come to you today" and the other heard "it's so hard for a rich person to get into heaven." Why did they hear such contrasting responses from Jesus?

Jesus continues to make the connection between our money and our hearts with this parable in Luke chapter 16 verses 1 to 15. The shrewd manager leverages the resources he has available to him to invest into his future home, and is commended by his master. What can the church learn from this? How can we leverage our resources to invest in eternal dwellings?

Well hey, welcome to the Becoming Better Podcast here at QuadCity. I'm Josh, I'm the host for today's episode.

Myself, Jason, and a new guest to our podcast, Brad Greene who is new to our staff will be joining us as we talk about week one of our new series we just kicked off this past Sunday, "Transformed."

"Transformed" is all about the heart and Jesus' teaching around generosity and our heart. And it ties in with this journey that we've been on as a church through Excel. So we are at the midpoint of our journey and as Jason mentioned as he kicked off the sermon, last year was focused on what God wants to do through us, but this series for these four weeks are all looking in at what God wants to do IN us. How God wants to transform us, which all of us would say we want if we are disciples of Jesus, that we want to be better.

So as always if you haven't yet listened to the sermon this week, listen to that because it will help make sense and give more context around this conversation.

We are grateful each week that you all listen in and join with us, so here's this week's episode.

Jesus, in his sermon on the mount, makes it very clear that we will store up treasure somewhere. The act of storing treasure isn’t condemned, but we should pay close attention to the location in which the treasure is stored. Jesus makes a concise statement of “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” So the question is, as Christians, where are we storing up our treasure? On earth? or in Heaven? It’s gotta be one or the other.

Welcome to the Becoming Better Podcast. We sit down and go over last sundays message and dive in deeper in what the text tells us. We also Take some time to sit down and answer some of your questions. If you haven't listened to last sundays message then pause here and take a listen to that as it will help this conversation make more sense. We hope you enjoy this conversation.
