For the Sake of the Poor (ft. Tyler Staton) | For the Sake of Others E3

"Wealth quickly becomes destructive for those who don't respect its power."Tyler Staton, Lead Pastor of Bridgetown Church, examines Jesus' teaching that "you cannot serve God and Mammon." He shows us how wealth promises what it can't deliver, and encourages us to defy the deformative power of money by serving the poor, practicing generosity, and dying to our false selves.Key Scripture Passage: Matthew 6v19-24This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.

But what does it mean to actually practice the way of Jesus in today’s complex, secular world? In this podcast by Practicing the Way, John Mark Comer responds to that important question through his teachings at Bridgetown Church in Portland, Oregon. Join us as John Mark provides practical insight on how you can be with Jesus, become like Him and do what He did wherever you are today. practicingtheway.org ( http://practicingtheway.org )
