Summary

Jesus didn’t come for the perfect. He came for the broken. In Matthew 9:9–13, Jesus calls Matthew, a hated tax collector, and everything changes. This message reminds us that no one is too far gone, no sin is too great, and Jesus is still the friend of sinners. Your past doesn’t disqualify you. It’s the very place Jesus meets you. 📖 Scripture References: • Matthew 9:9–13• Hosea 6:6 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week: • He Calls Sinners, Not the Righteous - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin: Matthew S4E1• Old To New - Matthew Season 4 Trailer• Jesus, the Friend of Sinners - Old to New - Matthew S4E1 (Full Service)• Matthew Season 4 About: The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
