Growing Up in 2020

1 Timothy 6:6-19

Dr. Mike Decker

Big Idea:

My spiritual maturity is showcased in how I steward finances.

Marker #1: Heart Contentment

1 Timothy 6:6-7 (NLT) True godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. After all, we

brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us

when we leave it.

➢ If I can be happy with what I have, I will always have enough.

Marker #2: Balanced Pursuit

1 Timothy 6:9-10 (NLT) People who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by

many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. For the love of

money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from

the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

➢ If I can hold lightly onto the things of this world, I will avoid anguish.

Marker #3: People Investing

1 Timothy 6:17-19 (NLT) Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to

trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us

all we need for our enjoyment. Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich

in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. By

doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that

they may experience true life.

➢ When I leverage and empower others with my stuff, I will experience joy.
