Episode Description: Jesus’ words, “Do not throw your pearls to the swine,” can feel confusing—until we understand what He was really saying. In this episode, Terry shares a deeply personal story about loss, hidden treasure, and the surprising value of what we carry every day. Together, we explore how faith, like a pearl, is formed through discomfort—and why we must take that pain to God. That pain might be Treasure!

Key Topics Covered:

• The cultural meaning behind “pearls” and “swine”
• Why Jesus used this powerful metaphor
• A personal story of loss and unexpected treasure
• Recognizing the value of your pain
• Wearing your faith daily—not hiding it
• Understanding who you can trust
