There’s a stretch of road in every town that everybody knows is broken. We all know where these gaps are. We pass them. We drive around them. We shake our heads and mutter, “Somebody should really fix that.” Today, we read Isaiah 58:1-12 and Matthew 5:13-20; in this sermon, Pastor Travis reflects upon these passages to show us what God has to say about these gaps that we pass every day.
