North Platte Berean Church
Imperishable Treasure
Every type of treasure this world holds will fade, corrode, and (sooner or later) pass away. So chasing these things only traps us in greed and anxiety. Our hearts are made to seek a far greater treasure…one that's imperishable, undefiled, and unfading! Pursuing this treasure actually brings contentment…a deep rest and trust in God that sets us free from greed and anxiety and makes generosity toward God and others a natural way of life. And when we're so contented in our relationship with our Heavenly Father that our lives reflect His generosity, that's true treasure.

Creating Spaces
We believe that by 2022, through God’s grace and power, we will see 2,000 people baptized and growing in relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community. One key step? Creating spaces to reach more faces.

Watch out!Be on guard!
Avoid greed's presumption
Be rich toward God
Next Week's Text
Just as we've seen this week how greed can prevent us from being rich toward God, next week we'll further examine Luke 12 to see a second obstacle to finding True Treasure in this life.
