You Must be Perfect: Hindrances to GrowthMatthew 5:48
Compiled and Presented by:Dave Stewart

Synopsis: Jesus teaches us that true righteousness is about being like our Father, about being fully-grown up in Him. However, there are several reasons why some disciples grow to be like them. In this lesson, we’ll discuss some of the things that hinder us.
“Let all that you do be done with love.”
