A Kingdom of Authenticity // Matthew 6:1-18 // S7-E3

Doesn't it sometimes just seem impossible NOT to feel like a hypocrite? It's so easy to fall into doing the right things but for the wrong reasons. But Jesus has strong words to say against those who do "spiritual" things like giving, praying, and fasting just for show. Join us as we dive into what Jesus says about living authentically as His followers... Because the reality is, we don't need to be recognized by people for the things we do in this life. After all, the rewards our Heavenly Father gives are of infinitely more value than any recognition the world could ever offer!
