"Living for the Line, Not the Dot"

Aug 3, 2025  •  Rev. Charlie Holt

In this eye-opening sermon, Rev. Charlie Holt unpacks Jesus' parable of the rich fool and challenges us to examine our attachments—whether to money, possessions, or even a fish tank. Drawing from personal stories and Paul’s teachings, Rev. Holt explores the dangers of greed and the quiet power of contentment. He reminds us that life does not consist in the abundance of our possessions and invites us to live not for temporary gain (the dot) but for eternal purpose (the line). With practical wisdom on tithing, repentance, and eternal perspective, this message calls us back to a life centered on God.

Scripture Reference: Luke 12:13–21

Key Themes: Greed, Idolatry, Tithing, Eternal Perspective, Contentment, True Riches
