When Faith is a Performance

When Faith is a Performance

July 21, 2026 · 3 min

In today's episode of The Daily Pursuit, hosted by Tim Tebow, we examine Matthew 6:1 and Jesus's warning against practicing righteousness in order to be seen — a trap the Pharisees fell into by treating prayer, fasting, and generosity as performances for public applause. Tim calls listeners to examine their motivations, asking God to expose any craving for validation that's crowding out genuine connection with Him, and to choose the lasting reward of serving for an audience of One. If you’re looking to deepen your faith through daily Scripture, guided prayer, and moments of quiet reflection, we invite you to explore more on the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pray.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ app. Join Tim Tebow as he helps you pursue God’s Word each day and discover additional resources designed to strengthen your walk with Christ.
