Money and success are often seen as the pathway to security and satisfaction, but Scripture exposes that they can easily become the very things that enslave us. In this message from James 5, we are reminded that the issue isn’t having possessions—it’s when possessions have us. The passage calls us to hold loosely to the things of this world, endure faithfully through suffering, and live with urgency in light of Jesus’ return. When our hearts are anchored in Christ instead of temporary things, we don’t live for what fades—we live for what lasts.
