The God-Complex: Wealth, Power, and the Illusion of More

From ancient kings who declared themselves gods to modern billionaires shaping society, the temptation to rise above others has always been the same. Wealth and power create a dangerous illusion — the belief that man can rule without God. Psychology confirms what Scripture has long revealed: riches and affluence often harden hearts, decrease empathy, and fuel greed.

This series, The God-Complex: Wealth, Power, and the Illusion of More, dives deep into the shadow that follows wealth and the dangerous transformation it causes within us. Through Scripture, history, and modern research, we will examine how greed blinds us, how power corrupts us, and how consumerism enslaves us.

But Jesus’ words still cut through the noise: “You cannot serve both God and money” (📜 Matthew 6:24). The Son of God exposes the trap of “more” and invites us into the freedom of His Kingdom — one built not on greed and pride but on humility, generosity, and eternal abundance.

Over five parts, we’ll uncover the lies, confront the idols, and rediscover what true wealth looks like in Christ. This is not just a study of culture, but a call to resist the illusion and walk in the truth of Jesus.
