S1E11 Treasures in Heaven

Two affluent men encounter Jesus, but their reactions couldn't be more different. One, a man of apparent virtue, finds it impossible to part with his worldly riches despite Jesus’ call for him to seek the greater rewards of Heaven. Conversely, the other man, a tax collector grappling with his sinful past, begins to embrace his faith in Christ and ultimately finds redemption alongside his peers. Zacchaeus, the chief tax collector in Jericho, has amassed his wealth through dishonesty. His young son, eager to meet Jesus, feels the pull to see Him, but Zacchaeus is reluctant to let go of his profit-driven pursuits.
