Little Kingdom Living
Earth bound treasures Matt. 6:19-24
Anxiety bound need Matt. 6:25-34

God has a better way! Col. 1:13-14
On the cross Christ broke the power of the little kingdom
On the cross Christ paid the debtThe cross guarantees someday the
conflict between kingdom of self and kingdom of God will be over
Big kingdom living means living with Christ as the center of everything I think, desire, say, and do.
