Joe: Alright so what have we got here?
Bible Expert: Well Joe, this is Matthew 6. It starts out talking about how we should do all of our good deeds in secret and avoid trying to show off for people's approval.
Joe: Whoa, so all the good stuff we do shouldn't be for show?
Bible Expert: That's right. We should do good deeds without wanting recognition.
Joe: Interesting. What else does this chapter say?
Bible Expert: Well, there's a few verses about praying and how we should do it in private. It also talks about fasting and giving to the poor.
Joe: Wow, that's really deep. So if we do all these things in secret, we'll be rewarded?
Bible Expert: Yes, that's right. The Bible says that if we do these things in secret, God will reward us openly.
Joe: Interesting. So what else is in this chapter?
Bible Expert: The chapter also talks about not worrying about tomorrow, since God already knows what's going to happen. And it also talks about how we should trust in God's provision and not worry too much about material possessions.
Joe: That's really powerful stuff. So if we trust in God and don't worry about the material world, we'll be okay?
Bible Expert: That's right. The Bible says that if we focus on God and not on the material world, we'll be taken care of.
