ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What happens when religious rules get in the way of loving people?
In this episode of Rev’d Up, Meghan and Luke explore Mark chapter 7, where Jesus challenges religious hypocrisy, questions traditions that overshadow compassion, and turns attention toward what comes from the heart.
From the bold response of the Syrophoenician woman to the healing of a man who is deaf and has difficulty speaking, they consider how these encounters challenge assumptions about who belongs. Can an outsider teach us something we need to hear? And what happens when being “right” becomes more important than caring for our neighbors?
With humor, honest questions, and an accessible approach to Bible study, Megan and Luke invite us to listen more closely, hold our certainty more loosely, and make room for unexpected grace.
