Do you trust God or Mammon?

Feb 22, 2026    Jason Boyer

This message dives into what Jesus really meant when He said in Matthew 6:24, “You cannot serve God and mammon.” Pastor Jason explains that mammon isn’t just about money — it’s a spiritual force that tries to convince us we can trust money to give us what only God can provide.


He unpacks mammon as “that in which one trusts,” showing how it becomes a false god that promises security, identity, and happiness through wealth instead of through a relationship with God. Pastor Jason challenges us to see how subtle this can be — especially in a culture where chasing money is normal and even celebrated.


The sermon highlights three serious dangers of pursuing mammon: it creates a constant cycle where enough is never enough, it drowns out God’s voice in our lives, and it slowly pulls our hearts away from our first love — Jesus. In a money-driven culture like ours, this is a real and ongoing spiritual battle, where greed often hides behind words like ambition, success, or lifestyle.
