A preaching series through the book of Matthew. Join us in Matthew 19:16-26!
Jesus was a master story teller who used parables to teach about the Kingdom of God. All the parables are unique in their ability to shock the listener and engage the heart not just the mind. This sermon is a deeper dive into the Parable of the Rich Young Ruler and shows Jesus sending him away due to an idol of greed.
Are you trying to be good enough to go to heaven?
The Lord's interaction with the Rich Young Ruler teaches a simple lesson: you need Jesus more than anything else.

In this message, Pastor Jason continues the Encounters series by teaching on Jesus' conversation with the Rich Young Ruler in Matthew 19. Through this story, we're reminded that it's possible to do all the “right” things, ask all the “right” questions, and still miss what truly matters if we're unwilling to fully surrender to Jesus. Pastor Jason challenges us to examine our own hearts: What are we holding onto that's keeping us from fully following Christ? This message invites us to reflect on the barriers — whether possessions, pride, intellect, or comfort — that prevent us from laying our lives fully at Jesus' feet. True encounters with Jesus demand everything, but in surrender, we find the only thing that truly satisfies: life with Him.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to James Oliver Cox from Cherry Log, GA. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping us call people to deeper surrender. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:17-22: And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.'” And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.” And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” Disheartened by the saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. — Mark 10:17-22 He runs. He kneels. He asks. He's moral. He's successful. He's hungry for something more. And Jesus sees it. But Jesus also sees deeper into the one thing he lacks. The rich young man is seeking one more thing to add to his list of accomplishments. He wants to complete the checklist. But Jesus invites a different question that leads to an unexpected answer: "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone." It's a subtle signal toward a loftier reflection—there is no "level of goodness" that reaches the extent of God's goodness. Then comes his invitation. Not to do more, but to let go. Sell it. Give it. Follow him alone. This has nothing to do with poverty—it's about priority. His wealth wasn't the problem. It was his grip on his wealth that was the problem. And when Jesus touches on this sensitive area, the man walks away sad. Jesus always comes after the thing we grip onto that keeps us from gripping onto him. This is because he's not interested in our level of spiritual goodness or religious checklists. He wants surrendered hearts, fully willing to let go of their grip on things and grip onto him. For this man, it was his money. For you, it may be something different or more specific, such as success, approval, comfort, or a sense of control. But Jesus doesn't care about these things, unless you are going to loosen your grip on them and sacrifice them to him to grip fully on him. Because the call to "follow me" always means we have to "unfollow" something else. #SurrenderEverything, #FollowJesus, #Project23 ASK THIS: What good things are you tempted to use as spiritual credentials? Why do you think Jesus loved the rich man even before he responded? What's one thing you're afraid Jesus might ask you to surrender? How does this story reshape your view of “success”? DO THIS: Ask yourself, “What's the one thing Jesus might ask me to unfollow?” Then ask him for the courage to surrender it. PRAY THIS: Jesus, show me what I'm still clinging to. I want to follow you without hesitation—help me let go of whatever stands in the way. Amen. PLAY THIS: “I Surrender.”
Phil continues our series in Matthew's gospel, preaching from Matthew 19:16-30. In this parable we see a rich man ask Jesus what he must do to get eternal life - we see Jesus' response to the man, the man's reaction, and Jesus' astonishing words for us today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8z_W8xdggQ

The sermon focuses on Mark 10, discussing two contrasting encounters: Jesus' welcoming of children and the encounter with the rich young ruler. Jesus emphasizes that the kingdom of God belongs to those with childlike faith - humble, trusting, and dependent. The story of the rich young ruler demonstrates that salvation is impossible through human effort alone, but possible through God. The sermon highlights how Jesus values the vulnerable and challenges self-righteousness and materialism.Please let us know if you are watching our stream for the first time, if you have made a decision, or need prayer – text CONNECT to (941) 260-1395 or click here: https://form.church/connectionClick here if you would like to give online: https://subsplash.com/u/-QJD4RD/giveMusic used with permission, CCLI License # 594759, Streaming Plus License # 21044022

Catch the message Come On Down by Pastor Scott Jones.This is the account of the “Rich Young Ruler” who was so attached to his money that it was an obstacle to following Jesus. Jesus sees money as a test of our devotion to him and warns us not to let it affect our relationship with God. He loves us too much not to tell us the truth.
Back in the 1980's and 90's there was a theological debate in the evangelical community on whether someone could accept Jesus as Savior (forgiven, redeemed, eternal security) and not accept him as Lord (submission and surrender). Some of that still lingers today in the way we parse out what it means to be a genuine follower of Christ and seem to use those two terms as if our response to God's offer of salvation is two separate events, but the Bible never expresses or communicates it this way. In this message we examine the encounter Jesus has with the person who we call the "Rich Young Ruler" and discover that there can be no salvation without complete surrender - of everything we have and are.

18Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do toinherit eternal life?" 19 So Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Megood? No one is good but One, that is, God. 2Lukenow tells us what we call the story of the “Rich Young Ruler” in verses 18-30.This incident takes place as Jesus is traveling with His disciples to Jerusalem.What is interesting to me is that this exact story is repeated in almost the samedetails in the first three Gospels. We find it first in Matthew 19:16-30. Nextin Mark 10:17-31 and then lastly here in Luke 18:18-30. Mark'sGospel begins this story by telling us: “Now as He was going out on theroad, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher,what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?" (Mark 10:17). Notice that this man came “running”,he “knelt”, he “asked” the most important question a person could ask. Therich young ruler may be the only man in the Gospels who came to the feet ofJesus and went away in worse condition than when he came. And yet he had somuch in his favor! He was moral and religious, earnest and sincere, andprobably would have qualified for membership in the average church. Yet herefused to follow Jesus Christ and instead went his own way in great sorrow. Whatwas wrong with him? In a word: dishonesty. In spite of the fact that came theright way, “he came running”, he knew his need was urgent. That he camewith the right attitude of humility, “he knelt”. That he came to theright Person, he came to Jesus, the Teacher of teachers. And that he asked theright question, “What shall I do to inherit eternal life?” and he receivedthe right answer, he still made the wrong decision. Why?Because he was not honest with God or with himself. Therefore, he would not dowhat he was commanded to do. He was a superficial young man who said one thingbut did another. We will consider the areas in which he was dishonest. Firstwould be his view of Christ (vv. 18-19). Notice that he called Jesus, “Goodteacher”. I always wondered why Jesus responded by asking him, “Why doyou call me good?” The rabbis in the days of Jesus were called "Teacher”,(Master), but it was most unusual for a rabbi to be called "Good."The Jews reserved the word good for God alone (Psalms 25:8; 34:8; 86:5; 106:1).This explains why our Lord asked the young man what he meant, for if he reallybelieved that Jesus was "good," then he had to confess that Jesus wasGod. Byasking this question, our Lord was not denying His deity but affirming it. Hewas testing the young man to see if he really understood what he had just said.His subsequent behavior proved that the young ruler did not believe that JesusChrist was God. If he really thought he was in the presence of Almighty God,why did he argue politely about the Law, brag about his character, and thenrefuse to obey the Word? Surely he knew that God sees the heart and knows allthings! Today,the real question that should settle all the questions about Jesus andsalvation is, “Do you really believe that Jesus is indeed God in the flesh?” Thatis what the entire Gospel of John is about (John 20:30-31)! We might say thesewords in our heads and with our lips, but there if there is no change in ourlives and in our hearts, we really are being dishonest with ourselves and withGod. Today,is a good day to ask what do you really believe about Jesus in your heart! Godbless!

This Sunday we had the senior pastor of Imprint Church, Wole Agbaje. In this episode, he talks about Jesus and the rich young ruler on following Jesus and leaving everything else behind.
This weeks sermon focuses on the challenging teachings of Jesus, specifically His invitation to "Follow Me." Pastor Mike highlights the story of the Rich Young Ruler to explore the cost of following Jesus, urging listeners to identify and surrender the “one thing” standing between them and full devotion to Christ. The message emphasizes that following Jesus requires daily decisions of surrender, evaluation, and action, with the promise of eternal life and a transformed life on earth for those who truly follow Him.
Mark 10:17-31As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.' ” “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.” Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!” The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

DateMarch 9, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we kick off our Lenten series "Glitch" by confronting our impulse to possess rather than receive. When we move from "wow" to "mine," we reveal the twin sins of greed and gluttony—not moral failures to be ashamed of, but glitches in our connection to God and others. Through Jesus's loving encounter with the rich young man, we discover how our grasping hands reflect a deeper grief about our limitations, and how true liberation comes when we unclench our fists. What if the path to resurrection begins with honest recognition of what's "eating at the rind" of our souls?ReferencesScripture: Mark 10:17–22About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

Pastor Andy Cass Trust looks back, and hope looks forward. In this message, we explore how love, trust, and hope build strong relationships—brick by brick—through practical steps and Christ-centered wisdom. TEXT: 1 Corinthians 13:7, 13, Matthew 19:16-22 NOTES: Trust is essential, but so is hope. Today's Relationship Goals are to: Trust more and Hope more. KEYS TO BUILDING TRUST IN A RELATIONSHIP: -Be a life-giver -Be faithful to your promises, especially the small ones. -Provide and be content with what you have. -Speak truth in love -Honor one another -Choose love: “The Rich Young Ruler was willing to invest only his past into the relationship but refused to invest his future unless he remained in control. He wasn't seeking a healthy relationship—he wanted a self-serving dictatorship.” WHY DO WE LOSE HOPE? -It's taking too long. -It feels too big or too small. -It's just my idea (lack of unity or shared vision). -It seems impossible with no plan. "You have to view yourself as a marital mason. You are daily on the job adding another layer of bricks that will determine the shape of your marriage for days, weeks, and years to come." — Tripp Action Step: Talk about it: -With each other. -With God. -With good and godly counsel.
