Most of us carry more than we realize — not just stuff, but the anxiety that comes with it. The drive to accumulate, to secure, to hold on tight isn't a character flaw. It's what happens when we build our sense of self on things that can be taken away.
In this sermon, Pastor Tonetta explores what it looks like to locate your identity somewhere other than your possessions — drawing on stories from ancient monastics, a French novel, and the surprisingly radical logic of the Sermon on the Mount. The question underneath it all: what do you own that owns you back?
If you're wrestling with money, security, or what it means to live generously in an uncertain world, this one's worth your time.
