Oceanhills Covenant Church

In Mark, chapter 10 we encounter a powerful story. Jesus meets what the gospel writer calls "a rich, young ruler," and tells him to sell everything he has and give his money to the poor. The man walks away from Jesus sad, and Jesus is sad too. What do we make of this story for our place and time? Does Jesus wish for us to sell all our stuff too? As we near the end of our Lent-long series, we detox the items, people, or habits we treasure most. DETOX Assignments • Identify the one thing you treasure most- give it over to God • Sell something you treasure worth more than $100 & give the money to the poor – beach cruiser, a old vintage truck, piece of jewelry, a sand wedge, a surfboard, that pair of sunglasses… • Break off THAT relationship you know is dishonoring to God & compromising your character.
