Matthew 4:24 - PART 1

As a line of people waiting to be healed grows longer under the hot sun, Philip and Matthew discuss where Matthew should begin in his study of Torah. Philip points him toward the Psalms. What follows is a quiet unraveling of the belief that closeness to God is earned through effort, understanding, or excellence. Later, the camp fills with exhaustion, unanswered questions, childhood expectations of the Messiah, and the strain of endless need.
