A Heart That Hears, A Faith That Steps Out
Scripture Focus: Matthew 13;14 In Matthew 13, Jesus invites us into honest self-examination through the parable of the sower. The question is simple yet piercing: Which soil am I?

Daily Reflection: Mercy Over Ritual
Scripture Focus: Matthew 12 In Matthew 12, Jesus confronts a familiar tension—religious rule-keeping versus the heart of God.

He is not dismissing God’s law; He is revealing its true…

At the Feet of Jesus
