In his first epistle, Peter encouraged believers to "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." (1 Peter 3:15) Unfortunately, not many people ask Christians the reason for the hope they have because there's little difference between the church and the world.

In this three-part series, Pastor Phil Winfield begins with the assertion that the reason most lost people never ask a Christian about their hope in Christ, is because it looks like their hope is in money, just like everyone else.

This series not only addresses the American problem of chronic, compulsive consumerism, but digs deeper into some of the root spiritual problems that cause Christians to place their hope in money and not in the Christ.
