Convince Me to Care!  Why do we need to think about finances?

Matthew 13:44-46 CSB – “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure, buried in a field, that a man found and reburied. Then in his joy he goes and sells everything he has and buys that field.

45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls. 46 When he found one priceless pearl, he went and sold everything he had and bought it.

Acts 20:35 CSB – remember the words of the Lord Jesus, because he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Matthew 6:20-21 CSB – store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
