Hey everyone! This week on the podcast we are joined by Kalista (our daughter) as we talk about a passage in Matthew 6 about storing up treasures in Heaven.

In this episode, Joe and Sami go through the book of Jonah and highlight how God worked through every part of the story. When Jonah rebelled from God's plan, God still used Jonah to fulfill his purposes. This is a convicting story for us as we see Jonah praising God when He provides and cursing him when He brings trials. We also look at how Jonah looked down at the people God called him to go to. Jonah saw those people as untouchable and we wanted to ask ourselves... do we see people as untouchable?
