Do you ever feel like you don’t measure up spiritually no matter how hard you try? It can be exhausting trying to do good all the time and obey the religious rules. We’re tempted to feel discouraged, less than, or even to treat others differently based on how we all obey the rules. But is following Jesus just about keeping the rules? What if religious scorecards completely miss what God actually cares about? In this week’s video, we see Jesus revealing that God isn’t foremost concerned with strict rule-keeping. Through a surprising encounter with religious leaders, we’ll discover the one thing God truly prioritizes over anything else.
