" Take your pick. Just choose one option and the ten million dollars is yours.' A deep voice from another microphone begins reading the list: ' Put your children up for adoption; become a prostitute for a week; give up your American citizenship; abandon your church; abandon your family; kill a stranger; have a sex-change operation; leave your spouse; change your race.' " That's the list.' the host proclaims. ' Now make your choice.'"

Wisdom from the Word:
read Luke 12:13-21. What point about greed does Jesus make in this passage? What is His main point?
Read Deuteronomy 10:14-15. According to this passage, why does greed make no sense? What is the connection between verses 14 and 15?
Read Hebrews 13:5-6. What negative command is given here? What positive command? What reason is given for obeying the commands? What results from obeying the commands?
