In this episode of The Overflow Podcast, we dive into Matthew 5:33–36 and unpack Jesus’ words about oaths, honesty, and integrity. At first glance, this passage seems straightforward, but as we explore the historical context, cultural expectations, and heart behind Jesus’ teaching, we discover there is far more going on beneath the surface.

Jesus challenges the way people used vows and promises to appear trustworthy while avoiding true accountability. What does this mean for Christians today? Should believers avoid oaths entirely? How does this teaching shape the way we speak, lead, commit, and live with integrity in everyday life?

If you’ve ever wondered how the Sermon on the Mount applies to modern faith, leadership, or daily conversations, this episode will stretch and encourage you.

- What Jesus meant in Matthew 5:33–36
- The cultural and biblical context of oaths
- Why Jesus emphasized simple, honest speech
- How this passage applies to modern Christian life
