Set Your House In Order

from Come On Up · host The Mountain Cross

Send us a note!“Set your house in order, for you shall die.” Isaiah’s words to King Hezekiah are not gentle, and that’s exactly why they’re so needed. We sit with the reality of mortality and ask the question we all dodge: if your time were short, what would you change right now, and what would you leave behind for the people you love?From there, we get practical about Christian estate planning and biblical stewardship. We talk about why a thoughtful estate plan brings peace, how it provides for family, and how it protects you in later years by clarifying who will make key decisions. But we don’t stop at documents and dollars. We push into the heart issue: God owns everything, and we’re managers, not owners. That changes how we think about money, generosity, charity, and the motives behind building “our own little empires.”We also explore Hezekiah’s prayer, the contrast between works and grace, and what it means that God can answer prayers even when our motives are mixed. The bigger question hangs over the whole message: what will you do with the time God gives you, and will your life point people to the gospel?Subscribe for more verse-by-verse teaching, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway. What does “set your house in order” mean for you today?What makes a Calvary Chapel a Calvary Chapel. Join Pastor Carl as he goes through one of the Calvary Chapel Distinctives on The Mountain Cross Minute. The 20th anniversary of Facing the Giants, Monday September 14 - 6:30PM at the Smoky Mountain Cinema in Waynesville.Come On Up is the radio ministry of The Mountain Cross in Waynesville North Carolina.
