In Matthew 12:1–8, the Pharisees condemn hungry disciples for picking grain on the Sabbath—but Jesus reveals something deeper: God desires mercy, not sacrifice. In this episode, Pastor Mark invites you to explore how legalism burdens the soul, why Jesus is “greater than the temple,” and what it means that the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath. If you find yourself weary under religious pressure, this passage is for you.
