He warns that a spirit of mammon keeps Christians from trusting God\u2019s Word, pointing to Luke 6:38 and the principle that you set the measure of return in your sowing.   Using Mark 10\u2019s rich young ruler, Roger explains the issue isn\u2019t having riches but trusting in them, and highlights Jesus\u2019 promise of a hundredfold return for those who leave and give for the gospel. He shares a personal testimony of giving $500 toward an ORU dorm project and later seeing God provide college scholarships for his sons. He notes research that many Christians cut giving during the 2008 recession, calls that a mistake, connects Philippians 4:19 to being a giver, then leads you in a prayer to receive Christ as your Lord and Savior.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 Offering as Investment 00:35 Identity in Christ 02:23 Kingdom Law of Giving 05:09 Rich Young Ruler 10:44 Trusting Riches vs God 12:14 Hundredfold Return 14:26 Scholarship Seed Story 22:58 Recession and Giving 25:03 Breaking Mammon by Giving 26:16 Salvation Invitation   Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100064668460680 ","author_name":"Extraordinary Living With Bill & Roger","author_url":"http:\/\/billandroger2021.libsyn.com","html":"
