NORTHLAND, A CHURCH DISTRIBUTED
FEBRUARY 12-14, 2011
MONEY: In God We Trust? An Alternative or a Connection to People? A MESSAGE FROM DR. JOEL C. HUNTER, SENIOR PASTOR (Read about Northland’s senior pastor, Dr. Hunter, and his life in ministry at northlandchurch.net/joelhunter.) In this message, Dr. Hunter will continue his series “Money” by focusing on money as a powerful temptation away from relationships. Our culture idolizes profit over loyalty. We give money a stronghold when we overuse it or become overly dependent on material things.
NOTES
Matthew 26:14-16 (NASB) “Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said, ‘What are you willing to give me to betray Him to you?’ And they weighed out thirty pieces of silver to him. From then on he began looking for a good opportunity to betray Jesus.”
Worship focus Worship Christ today as our Deliverer. He frees us from those things in our lives that we would substitute for meaningful relationship. Only in Him can we find true fulfillment.

Talk about it:
• What examples can you think of that illustrate that our culture values profit over relationship? • Can you think of a time when you were tempted to assess situations and people for what you could get out of them or how you could benefit from them? • How do you know when you are out of balance in your life, pursuing material things more than meaningful things?
