So here's one way I identified what greed has looked like for me. So let's lean in together and see what God's Word has to say about this sin of greed. I guess I can hit something," but as I learned more and more about what greed looks like, I realized, "Wow, I am such a greedy person by nature." I think a lot of us will be agreeing with that by the end of tonight. I mean, I guess I can tap into something. So when I first was given this topic, I was like, "Man, greed. I've moved a lot in my young 20s, and I for sure don't think I have a lot of money compared to some. I'm just at that stage of life where I'm 26, and I just don't have my own house. I know for me…by the way, if we haven't met, I'm JD…one thing that's true of JD is I don't have a lot of stuff. Tonight, we get to talk about the deadly sin of greed. We've talked about self-indulgence in terms of laziness and gluttony. We've talked about things like anger and pride. They are deadly in their nature, so you have to be on your guard against them." So if you're joining us for the first time, we are in a series called Seven Deadly Sins, where we are identifying different sins that a lot of people have said, "Hey, these sins specifically… Although all sins are equal, these sins, if you let them have a stronghold or a huge grip in your life, they can ruin you. So wherever you are, thank you for joining us tonight, and I know God still wants to speak to us even amidst all the crazy. He is faithful, and I am just thankful we still get to gather through technology, that we have the opportunity here to still meet together. I know for me, I spoke too soon last week during the announcements, and I am just sick that we did not get to be together this week, but I am trusting that God is good. Like she said, last week was so amazing getting to be together and gather in person. All right, ladies and gentlemen, so glad you're tuning in with us.
