The Parable of the Rich Fool   - KR 64 

Your life is not defined by what you possess, but what possesses you.  

Jesus says that it is impossible to serve both God and money and this parable drives this important truth.  The rich fool was possessed by his possessions.  Scot, Kevin, and Joe talk about how Jesus invites his kingdom to be marked by generosity and that there is no room to be greedy with what God provides. 

How are you using the abundance God has given you?
