Abundant Life Sermons

Living with an eternal perspective changes how you live and how you give. In his letter to the Philippians, the Apostle Paul encouraged the believers to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus and invest in things that will last for eternity. A focus on eternity is reflected in two ways: The way you LIVE and the way you GIVE! Money is necessary, but it is never the ultimate priority when you have an eternal perspective.
