Jesus calls us to a deeper kind of generosity—one that’s hidden, humble, and heart-driven.

In this episode of the SimplyRevised Podcast, we explore Matthew 6:1–4, where Jesus challenges His followers to give without seeking recognition. Today we contrasts Kingdom giving with public performance, reminding us that true righteousness isn’t about being seen—it’s about being faithful.

We’ll explore:
• Why Jesus warns against giving “with trumpets”
• How generosity reflected covenant faithfulness in Scripture
• What it means to give in secret—and be seen by God

Join us as we consider three simple ways to cultivate hidden generosity in today’s world.

Jesus redefines what it means to live rightly before God—not through rigid rule-keeping, but through a heart transformed by love. Set against the backdrop of the Sermon on the Mount, today we explore how Jesus fulfills the Law and the Prophets, calling his followers to embody the justice, mercy, and faithfulness God has always desired. From anger to love, from legalism to true covenant loyalty, Jesus invites us to become a new kind of people—formed by the story of Scripture and shaped by His character.

Appian Media: Bible Study without Borders: Sermon On The Mount

Jesus doesn’t begin the Sermon on the Mount with commands—He begins with identity. “You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world.” These aren’t tasks to perform, but deep truths to live from.

In this episode, we explore three powerful, identity-shaping metaphors Jesus gives His followers: Salt, Light, and a City on a Hill. These aren’t random illustrations—they’re rooted in the Hebrew Scriptures and steeped in covenant language. Salt reminds us of God’s enduring faithfulness. Light reflects our calling to reveal God’s presence in a dark world. And a City? It’s a picture of a visible, communal people where others encounter the reign of God.

Through this lens, we’ll see how Jesus redefines what it means to be blessed and challenges us to live lives that are distinct, illuminated, and grounded in the story of God.

Whether it’s in our neighborhoods, workplaces, or online spaces, Jesus is calling us to be a preserving presence, a revealing light, and a visible people shaped by His Kingdom.

Key Themes:

• Salt as covenant loyalty
• Light as God’s mission
• The Church as a City that reflects God’s kingdom

Scripture Focus:

Matthew 5:13–16 (NIV)
"Let your light shine..." not to draw attention to ourselves, but to glorify our Father in heaven.”
