Holy Week Devotion | Saturday

Summary

While scripture teaches that the love of money is a root of evil, a recent event involving a massive Easter egg hunt sponsored by an anti-trafficking organization demonstrated how even good intentions can descend into chaos and greed when human nature takes over. The sermon highlights how a singular focus on personal gain can override noble purposes, drawing a parallel to the despair and uncertainty felt by Jesus' disciples on the Saturday before his resurrection. The takeaway is to examine our own hearts and motives, especially during times of celebration or opportunity, to ensure our actions align with greater good and not just self-interest.
