Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this discussion of Matthew 8:14-17, Steve Gregg examines the story of Peter's sick mother-in-law and Jesus' healing of her. He emphasizes that while this event did not draw a large crowd like some of Jesus' other miracles, it is significant because it demonstrates Jesus' compassion and willingness to heal.

Overall, Gregg highlights the importance of faith in Jesus' ability to heal both physical and spiritual ailments.
