## Resource

In Matthew 19, the Pharisees come to Jesus with a question—but it isn’t an honest search for truth. It’s a test. They’re looking for a way to trap Him, asking a question they know will stir emotion and division: “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?”But instead of avoiding the tension, Jesus uses the moment to speak clearly about God’s design for marriage, the seriousness of divorce, and the condition of the human heart behind it all. In this episode, Pastor Mike begins walking us through Matthew 19, helping us see not just the question being asked, but the deeper truth Jesus is revealing.
