Old Testaments; Christian life & practice

""Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites...""

With these biting words, Jesus exposed the spiritual rot hidden beneath the surface of the scribes and Pharisees' outward religiosity. In The Seven Woes, Steven R. Martins, director of the Cántaro Institute, offers a bold and sobering exposition of Matthew 23-Christ's final public sermon before the cross-to confront the timeless dangers of hypocrisy, legalism, and spiritual pride.

With pastoral insight and theological clarity, Martins reveals how Christ's words were not only directed at first-century Pharisees but also ring true in our own pews and pulpits. Through these woes, we hear the voice of the Good Shepherd, calling His people away from dead religion and into sincere, Spirit-filled obedience.

Convicting yet hopeful, The Seven Woes reminds us that true religion is not found in empty performance but in hearts transformed by the grace and truth of Jesus Christ.
