if i ever had to preach a sermon, i think i would preach on this text, "But we do not want any of the land on the other side of the Jordan. We would rather live here on the east side where we have received our inheritance." (Numbers 32:19)
the tribes of Reuben and Gad chose to remain in a place of profit and assured comfort rather than journey with the rest of the Israelites to the Promise Land. they persevered through the wilderness only to trade their reward for riches...what a sermon this could (one day) be!
