The Treasure Principle

Randy Alcorn’s little book The Treasure Principle has transformed the lives of many people, and now, LCC is going through it as a whole church endeavor. The book by itself will help us get a biblical perspective on material possessions as well as teaching us the secrets of discovering joy through giving.

Nevertheless, this is NOT a series of lessons trying to get you to give more of your money to the church. Rather, it’s a series intended to help us all get liberated from the stranglehold money and possessions have on us.

To top it off, Pastor Jeff will be teaching each week on a few of the principles gleaned from the book without actually rehashing any information in the book.

This series will be a great synergy between Sunday Gatherings, Life Group Lessons, and Independent Study. We hope you can join us every week.
