[Ohio-Communities-of-Faith] The Hope The World Needs by Max Lucado

[Maggie Stringer]

You know, we’re caretakers of the message of Jesus. As you and I live out
our faith, he is delivered into a faith-famished culture. We have the hope
this world needs, but sometimes we forget. Billion-dollar industries are
conning you by luring you into lifestyles that will leave you wounded and
weary.

How about some examples? Pornography is one. Pornography, they say, is a
harmless expression of sexuality. Hardly – it is as addictive as alcohol
and drugs. Or this one: Whoever dies with the most toys wins. Take on the
liability. Borrow the money. But your Maker tells you, “Do not lay up for
yourselves treasures on earth…but lay up for yourselves treasures in
heaven” (Matthew 6:19-20).

The lies are everywhere, and their consequences are devastating. Be
careful! Don’t get too cozy in this culture.
