Jared led a devotional centered around the concept of being "poor in spirit" from Matthew 5:3. The discussion mainly revolved around biblical passages about wealth and salvation, with different interpretations of the phrase "difficult for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God" being discussed. Jared emphasized the importance of self-denial, obedience, discipline, and struggle in following Christ, cautioning against letting earthly possessions control us. He ended by expressing gratitude to the attendees and sharing his plans to further study the Bible and theology, with a potential goal of establishing himself in seminary school in the near future, if it is still God's plan for him.
ending message was from Matthew 19:21- " Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
