Stapled Fruit

Sep 1, 2024 • The Rev. Charlie Holt

When the Pharisees fault the disciples for eating with unwashed hands, Jesus locates the real problem within: what comes out of a person reveals the heart. Borrowing Paul Tripp's story of a man who staples store-bought apples onto a rotten tree, the sermon warns against polished exteriors, including beautiful liturgy that can mask an unchanged heart. James's implanted word points to God's remedy, a new heart grafted with love for his name.
