Mark 7:1-23 This passage can be broken down into three parts: 1. The Need For Transformation  2. The Means We Try and Transform Our Lives 3. Jesus’ Way of Transformation  Quote: “The perceived distance and difficulty of entering fully into the divine world and its life are due entirely to our failure to understand that “the way in” is the way of pervasive inner transformation and to our failure to take the small steps that quietly and certainly lead to it.” - Dallas Willard Point 1: New Heart -- Psalm 51:5-10 Point 2: Word of God > Tradition of Men Point 3: Undivided Heart -- Matthew 6:19-21
