Turning the World Upside Down
The challenge of finding meaning in the world is real. Listening to many in today’s culture, happiness, meaning and fulfillment comes from being rich, being in charge, calling the shots. But the gospel is about turning the world upside down. Those who seek to save their life will lose it. Those who want to be truly rich will give their stuff away. If you want to live forever, you need to die to sin. And to be truly great, you must serve.
