Below are a couple links to the sermon illustrations that I used this morning on Nebuchadnezzar and selfishness. The first one (Rizzuto) is about a mother who left her husband and boys (aged 3 & 5) to ‘find herself’ and has since become a well-known author. The second (Pedley) is about a man who spent years living selfishly before coming to Christ. Now he is selling all of his earthly goods to help out people in Uganda (where he is now living). What a contrast!
Rahna Reiko Rizzuto (the absentee mother):
