Where Did it Go? — Debt

We all ask it: "Where did it go?" Our paychecks disappear, our budgets feel tight, and financial stress is more normal than financial peace. But the problem isn’t just math—it’s mission. This series explores what Scripture says about debt, tithing, and eternal investment, helping people not just manage money better but trust God more deeply and live more generously. Jesus tells the story of the Rich Fool—a man who thought more stuff would bring more security, but died before he could enjoy it. His mistake wasn’t being rich—it was trusting in riches. In the same way, many today are buried under debt, trying to live lives we can’t afford in pursuit of peace we can’t buy. Debt promises freedom but delivers slavery (Proverbs 22:7). This week challenges us to stop letting money control us and instead take back our margin by putting God first. Passage: Luke 12:13-21; Proverbs 22:7 Speaker: Kevin Ozolins
