**Re-release: The Gospels - Matthew (Part 1)

Tangible Talks

**Re-release**
On today's episode, Jana and Reata discuss their favorite verses and tangible takeaways from the Book of Matthew. Reata shares how Matthew Chapter 15 makes her use scripture as a mirror to see what is in her heart, as well as how our speech is a reflection of what is in our heart. Jana shares how Matthew Chapter 6 helps her overcome struggles with being a natural saver and to prioritize letting go of money so that money does not own her. Lastly, Reata recalls a busy time in her life that left her feeling exhausted when she found Matthew 27:32 which transformed her mindset on letting go of her pride and accepting help from others.
Verses Mentioned and Referenced:
Matthew 15:17-20
17 “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. 20 These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.”
Matthew 6:19-21
19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 27:32
32 As they were going out, they met a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross.
