Is It A Sin To Be Rich?

The Well Church Edmond

As followers of Jesus it is easy to feel conflicted about wealth. How much is too much? Am I supposed to sell all my possessions? Is it is a sin to be rich? As a human creation, money easily takes the place of God in our lives as we look to it for our worth and security. But in the end, money is uncertain and unreliable and when we make it our life goal to pursue money we often end up miserable. Living into the kingdom of heaven here on earth moves us from loving money to loving with money, and in that we find treasure with eternal worth.
