​12 How to Choose the Right Treasure​

New podcast published on April 22, 2026

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.
