today on Summit Life with J.D. Greer.

God is supposed to be your significance.

He's supposed to be your beauty, not money.

And God is supposed to be your primary security

for the future, not money.

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,

and all these things will be added to you.

All these things are all the other things that money does.

Security, saving, beauty, significance, contentment,

all that will be added to you when you give God the first and the best place in what you give.

As always, I'm your host,

Molly Vitovich. We're on the tail end of a teaching series we'll be wrapping up next week

called The Whole Story. And if you've missed any of the previous messages, remember, you can find

them free of charge at jd.gere.com. But right now, keep listening. We're tackling a subject that can be a bit

sensitive for some, but it's vital to advancing the gospel. It's the topic of generosity.

Yesterday we began this message, and today Pastor J.D. continues to challenge us to

surrender everything to God. So grab your Bible, and let's return to 2 Corinthians 9.7.

Here's Pastor Jady.

Second Corinthians 9, this is what Paul says.

Each one got a given is he's decided and is hard.

Not reluctantly, not that spirit.

Don't do that.
