I Called a Couple and Told Them They Were Poor | Dag Heward-Mills

Dag Heward-Mills tells his audience they have nothing to lose and dares them to admit it. He coins the phrase 'imaginary pomposity' and proves it with a story: he called a couple living abroad who insisted they were doing fine, then asked them to come work for God full time. When the time came they confessed they owed thousands of dollars to everyone around them. They were poor the whole time. He drives the point home with a pastor who tried to sell his hospital to enter ministry and could not find a single buyer. The lesson is blunt - stop pretending you are sacrificing something great. You have nothing, Christ in you is your only hope of glory, and the honest move is to just try.
