The King & His Kingdom: #93 - Investments & Wealth | Matthew 19:23-30

Tom Logue - February 1st 2026 Money reveals who’s really on the throne of your life—and Jesus invites us to trade control for something far better. In this message from The King & His Kingdom series, we continue through Matthew 19:23–30, where Jesus confronts the deep spiritual power of money. Using vivid illustrations—from MRI scans to investment returns—Tom shows how wealth can quietly replace God as king, and why Jesus says it’s hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. This sermon explores why money is not evil, but dangerous; how it exposes our true allegiances; and why shifting our trust from wealth to Jesus is humanly impossible—but fully possible with God. Most importantly, we’re invited to see the kingdom of heaven as the greatest investment imaginable: one that yields eternal life, true freedom, and a hundredfold return.
