Bank Account Theology | Philippians 4:10-20

Pastor Will Plonk concludes our series "Bank Account Theology". You are content when you have what you want... If he is who you want, you will be content. If he is not who you want, you will not be content. What do you want?

Bank Account Theology | Micah 6:1-16

Pastor David Kite continues our series, “Bank Account Theology”, rooted in the text of Micah 6. So far our series has focused on what we do with money, but this week we read from Micah 6 where God rebukes Israel, saying that it also matters how the money comes in. The charge against Israel is that they acquired their riches through dishonest gain, through lies, violence, and deceit. The call, for us, is to consider this rebuke and ask ourselves “how do I gain dishonestly?” Are we considering if our income is just? And once we have listened, we are to heed the voice of the Lord. Verse 8 is clear on what to do: “Act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God”.

Bank Account Theology | 2 Corinthians 9:6-15

Pastor Will Plonk continues our series in Bank Account Theology. "I think if we focus on joyful giving, the amount will take care of itself. If we realize the bullseye is God wants us to obey him cheerfully... obedience to God is the best thing for us." Our heart posture behind giving, or really any act of service, is more significant than the quantitative measure of the gift itself.

Bank Account Theology | Matthew 25:14-30

Pastor Nelson Akwari continuse our series in Bank Account Theology. A warped perception of God’s character leads to fruitlessness. In the Parable of the Talents, the third servant failed not just because he was lazy, but because he viewed the Master through a lens of fear rather than grace. If we view God as a "hard man" who harvests where he has not sown, we will live lives of self-preservation instead of purposeful risk for the Kingdom.

Bank Account Theology | 2 Corinthians 8:1-15

Pastor Will Plonk continues our series "Bank Account Theology". The Macedonian church’s, front and center in this passage, severe trials and extreme poverty paradoxically "welled up in rich generosity" through the grace of God. Move beyond an "old way" of financial security and instead embrace a Kingdom orientation where giving is not a religious obligation, but a transformative act of fellowship that deepens dependence on and experience of Jesus.
