Sermon on the Mount E18 – In Matthew 6, Jesus turns his attention to religious practices of his day, specifically generosity to the poor, prayer, and fasting. But Jesus gives a surprising warning about these practices: if you do religious practices to get praise from people, then you're missing the point. In this episode, Jon and Tim discuss these three religious practices and reflect on the pitfalls of making religious devotion about yourself.<a href="http://bibleproject.com">View more resources on our website →</a>Timestamps <ul><li>Chapter 1: Honor in Jesus’ Day (00:00-6:32)</li><li>Chapter 2: Giving to the Poor (6:32-26:00)</li><li>Chapter 3: Prayer (26:00-34:15)</li><li>Chapter 4: Fasting (34:15-54:14)</li></ul>Referenced Resources<ul><li><a href="https://a.co/d/95Qr4RE">Fasting: The Ancient Practices</a> by Scot McKnight</li><li><a href="https://a.co/d/3fogbWY">Christianity's Surprise: A Sure and Certain Hope</a> by C.
