It Came from Within (Part 4): Five Sticky Fingers by Don Campbell

Guard your Heart

Monster #1
Guilt says, "I owe you"
Slay it with Confession

Monster #2
Jealousy says, "God owes me"
Slay it with Celebration

Monster #3
Greed says, "I owe me"

Truths about Greed
Greed camouflages itself as a virtue
Greed is fueled by fear

The Warning

Bigger Barn Syndrome
Greed says, "I Earned it"
Abundance of Stuff doesn't equal Abundance of Time
We either give it away or it will be taken away

Jesus defines Greed 
"When I store up for me but I'm not rich to God"

Questions to help combat Greed
"Why do I have so much?"
"Lord, what do you want me to do with the extra?"

Peace is a Fruit of the Spirit, 
not a byproduct of savings

I am a manager, not the owner

Treasure directs the Heart

Slay the Monster of Greed
Percentage Prioritized Progressive Giving
