Episode 6 — The Secret Life of the Heart
In Bible Chapter by Chapter, we continue the Sermon on the Mount with Matthew 6 (WEB). Jesus moves from outward actions to inward motives—teaching on giving in secret, sincere prayer (including the Lord’s Prayer), fasting, forgiveness, storing treasures in heaven, serving God vs. Mammon, and living free from anxiety by seeking first God’s kingdom.
