The Dangers of Wealth

The Dangers of Wealth

Passage: Mark 10:17-31

Preacher: Derrick McCarson

Series: Mark: The Gospel of Go

Detail:

The story of the rich young ruler is a unique one because as Warren Wiersbe states, Of all the people who ever came to the feet of Jesus, this man is only one who went away worse than he came. Yet, if you were to examine this mans like from the outside you would say He had done everything right. As Jesus interacted with this rich young man, the Lord highlighted some inherent dangers that come with being wealthy. While money is not inherently evil, it has a way of becoming an idol that keeps many from finding true riches in God.
