Help! I’m a Hoarder!

Sermon Synopsis

Several days ago a friend of mine described how he and his wife had stored some of their belongings in a storage facility. At $55 a month for four years they stored those belongings never once going to retrieve them or use them. If you’re good at math, that’s $660 a year! Finally, they decided to do something with their stuff. Can you guess what they did? That’s right – they gave it all away! A few days after that conversation, I watched my first episode of Hoarders on A&E. Needless to say, I was dumb-founded. When the show was over I asked Sarah, “How could anyone live like that?” I smugly added, “Those pitiful people are messed up big time!” And then it happened – God entered the conversation! I hate it when He starts asking me questions that are designed to reveal my heart to me. Well, that’s where this week’s message got its start. That’s right; I got my message after conversing with God about an episode of Hoarders.
