A preacher argues that chasing wealth and power is really a fixation on death, keeping you locked on temporary things instead of the eternal. He calls worldly riches a dragon's hoard and fool's gold, saying only Jesus offers a view of God's kingdom without death or pain.

Chapters

When I choose to focus on wealth, power, influence, and daily bread, I fixate on death. When I place my every waking desire on Jesus, I am granted a view into the kingdom of eternal presence with God. No death. No pain. No sin. Seeing this is very difficult while buried up to our necks in the dragon's hoard. This world's gold—power, position, and possessions—is constantly paraded before us. We are so blinded by it that we cannot see it is fool's gold.
