In Episode 10 of The Sermon, Pastor Michael Lowenberg reflects on Jesus’ words in Matthew 6:1–4, where we’re invited to consider not just what we give, but why we give. Is our generosity rooted in a desire to honor God—or are we hoping someone takes notice? Through honest storytelling (including a fiery “Wing-a-thon” tale) and grounded teaching, Pastor Michael explores how giving becomes meaningful when it's done quietly, sincerely, and with a heart fully surrendered to God.
This message isn’t about guilt or pressure, it’s about freedom. When we give with integrity, without expectation of recognition, we align ourselves with the heart of our generous God. Whether giving has been a lifelong habit or a new challenge, this episode will encourage you to see generosity as a spiritual practice that shapes us and blesses others in ways that often go unseen, but never unnoticed by God.
