Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg focuses on Matthew 6:1-4 and the importance of giving to the poor without seeking recognition or admiration.

He emphasizes the need for giving generously without self-consciousness, as the ultimate goal should be to love and serve God and others, rather than acquiring a reputation or status within a community.
