Why would Jesus curse a fig tree that is out of season? Why lash out over something like this?
In today’s episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie continue through their Strange Scriptures series and talk through Matthew 21 and the cursing of the fig tree. We dive into the context of Passover around this passage and what Jesus' greater point was in why He cursed a fig tree that had leaves, but no fruit to bear. Our hope is that as you listen, you'd be able to apply some of the principles that Jesus was in your own life and reflect on whether or not you are bearing fruit!
