Stretch Out Your Hand
April 7, 2024 • Sean Gasperetti • Matthew 12:1–14
In Matthew 12:1-14 we read tensions rise around how Jesus follows the law compared to the Pharisees.

The Pharisees followed the law religiously and failed to see the promised messiah who was fulfilling the law before them. Pastor Sean encourages us in this teaching to trust Jesus over a system.
