In this episode we continue to discuss John Mark Comer's misuse of Matthew 5:5-6. Comer claims that we need to learn to hide - to find a secret place - to pray. We show that Jesus was warning about hypocrisy, not prescribing a special location to pray. Comer says it's not about what to pray but where. The context, however, is the Lord's Prayer where Jesus does tell us what way to pray. This is a clear example of the importance of authorial intent.
