Sweet irony


The church I posted about yesterday ironically is doing a series about money.
"“Bling bling” is the Oxford English Dictionary-approved term that began as hip hop slang referring to jewelry, diamonds and all forms of showy style. It also refers to a materialistic lifestyle built around excessive spending. "

"Jesus instructs us to practice good stewardship with all that we have. This includes managing our money and our spending habits..."

"This series isn’t about a “prosperity gospel” that promises to make you rich if you follow the right steps. Instead it’s about the miracle of giving and receiving; about how if we put God first we will walk in unique blessing; about living in covenant relationship with God."
[Lily slowly shakes her head.]

Sigh.

It's hard to be a good steward of six million dollars.
