The Generous Heart | Pt 3: The Power of Possessions | Luke 12:13 - 21


Listen Later

In this episode of The Generous Heart, Pastor Jacob digs into one of Jesus’ most penetrating teachings on wealth and identity from Luke 12:13–21. When a man interrupts Jesus to settle a financial dispute, Jesus turns the moment into a lesson on the deep danger of letting our possessions define us.

Drawing on insights from consumer psychology and the parable of the rich fool, Jacob explores how easily our sense of self becomes attached to what we have, and why that path always leads to spiritual poverty.

You’ll learn the three practices Jesus gives to protect your heart: see the danger, check your motives, and turn from greed. Ultimately, generosity isn’t just about giving, it’s a safeguard for the soul.

If you’ve ever wrestled with contentment, identity, or the pressures of a culture built on “you are what you own,” this episode will both challenge and free you.
