We are going to begin with a short portion of scripture that summarizes Matthew's gospel. Jesus opens his sermon on the mount with eight statements about “the good life”, but the good life is not what you think. Our thoughts may go towards a life of luxury. Whatever you may think is the good life - that’s not what Jesus is talking about. You can live the good life and live with in your means. Even if you don’t have very much. Especially, if you don’t have very much!
