Is the problem out there—or in here? In this eye-opening message, Jason walks us through Mark 7:14–23, where Jesus teaches that true defilement doesn’t come from what we eat, touch, or experience—but from what flows out of our hearts.
💥 Learn how:
The source of sin is internal, not external
Religious traditions and rules can distract from real heart change
Jesus redefines spiritual purity and makes all things clean
The gospel transforms us from the inside out
Jason Bengston
