Disturbing Red Letters: It's Hard for the Rich to Enter the Kingdom

from GracePointe Church | Nashville, TN · host GracePointe Church

We're looking at more of Jesus's Disturbing Red Letters !  This week's challenging words come from Luke 18. After encountering a rich ruler who refused to give his wealth to the poor and follow Jesus, Jesus responded by saying, “How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!”But what exactly does Jesus mean? Is he saying that rich people are going to miss heaven? How much money does someone have to have before they're considered “rich”? And is Jesus speaking only to his audience back then—or is he speaking to us today? Listen in as Lead Pastor Josh Scott explores these questions and more! ⛪️ To learn more about who we are and what we do, visit https://gracepointe.net/about-us🗣 For weekly event and ways to get plugged in, visit https://gracepointe.net/calendar🙌 To become a sustaining member of the GracePointe community, visit https://gracepointe.net/giveLike us on Facebook at https://facebook.com/gracepointetnFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/gracepointetn
