You Need a New Heart, Not Just Better Behavior

What if the problem isn’t just what you do—but what’s happening in your heart?

In this message from Mark 7:14–23, Pastor Jamin Grubbs explains Jesus’ teaching on sin, defilement, and our need for a new heart. Jesus moves the conversation beyond outward appearances and exposes the inward source of evil. Religious routines and behavior modification cannot provide the transformation we need—but Jesus can.

Discover four central truths: Jesus calls us to listen and understand. Outward evil comes from inward wickedness. The only cure for inward wickedness is a new heart. And Jesus is God’s provision for that new heart.

This message invites us to stop relying on a religious checklist and start living in response to Christ’s grace, depending on the Holy Spirit each day.
