In today’s Bible Show Daily, we open Matthew 6:19–21 and ask what it really means to “lay up treasures in heaven.” We unpack why earthly pursuits can’t satisfy, how loving God and loving our neighbor rewires our goals, and why an eternal perspective brings freedom from the rat race. Along the way: Jim Elliot’s famous line, a “Be Thou My Vision” reflection, Spurgeon on contentment, C.S. Lewis on “no mere mortals,” and Proverbs 18:10. If this encourages you, please like, comment with your takeaway, and subscribe for more daily Scripture conversations.
