The drift towards focusing on power over people has always been the battle we all face when we follow Jesus. In today’s post, I dive into how this was even a struggle for the early believers who were eyewitnesses to all the Jesus did.

Matthew shocked and offended his original audience. He was calling them out of their romanticized version of faith which had so blinded them that they missed the very thing they had been looking for every time they opened the scriptures.

From what I see in church culture today, I think we need to be offended again.

We are chasing the wrong things.
