In this expositional sermon from 2 Corinthians 8:3–5, Pastor Brandon Scroggins dives deep into the biblical view of money, stewardship, and heart-level priorities. The message, titled "First Things First," unpacks how genuine faith transforms our attitude toward giving, wealth, and trust in God. With biblical insights from Genesis to Revelation, Pastor Brandon shows that how we handle money is a spiritual matter—rooted in worship and faith, not just economics.
This sermon challenges cultural entitlement and encourages believers to joyfully and sacrificially give—first to the Lord and then to one another—demonstrating a rightly ordered life under the Lordship of Christ.
