There is nothing intrinsically wrong with peer pressure. Except when the pressure is coming from someone who is insanely out in front of us in the smarts department, athletic abilities, good looks or whatever. That kind of dominance will shut us down in a heartbeat. But if we are challenged by people who are truly our “peers”, then the pressure can be a good thing.

In our text Sunday, the Pharisees are peer-less. Nobody is going to beat them in the righteousness department. But Jesus says that our righteousness has to exceed that of the Pharisees. Not just match it, but exceed it. How are we supposed to do this?

Join us Sunday as we search and discover.
