12 How to Choose the Right Treasure

from Wednesday in the Word · host Krisan Marotta

You can look faithful on the outside and still be building your life around the wrong treasure. In this epsidoe, Krisan Marotta walks through Matthew 6:19–24 and shows how Jesus exposes the false security of worldly wealth, approval, and success. The real issue is not simply money, but whatever we cling to for meaning, safety, and hope instead of trusting the promises of God. In this week’s episode, we explore: What Jesus means by “treasures on earth” and “treasures in heaven”  Why earthly treasure always fails, while God’s promises endure  How your treasure reveals where your heart truly is  What it means for the eye to be “healthy” or “bad,” and how spiritual blindness distorts what we value  Why serving both God and money is ultimately impossible  How the Pharisees modeled outward religion while still chasing the rewards of this world  What it looks like to entrust your future to God instead of building your life around what you cannot keep After reading, you’ll have a clearer picture of what Jesus is warning against in the Sermon on the Mount and why this warning matters for every believer. This post invites you to examine what you are really living for, to see the emptiness of temporary treasure, and to fix your hope on the one treasure you can never lose. Series: Start Strong: A New Believer’s Podcast
