Morning Sermon - 7th June 2026 - The Rich Fool and the Danger of Covetousness

This morning's sermon is delivered by Rev. George Speers.

Preaching from Luke 12:13-21, the Reverend George Speers examines the parable of the rich fool, tracing how a man's confidence in his wealth and plans left him unprepared to meet God. Rev Speers explores three failures of the farmer - failing to acknowledge God, failing to care for others, and failing to understand himself - before turning to God's stark verdict on a life lived for possessions rather than for Him. The sermon presses home the question of what we truly value, and calls listeners to be rich towards God through faith in Christ.
