John - Grace Over Gotcha
from Living Spring Podcast · host John Rittenhouse
This week Pastor John walks through the story of the woman caught in adultery, using it as a lens to examine how we all approach Scripture and how we treat people we want to see fall. He introduces the idea of the "gotcha" mindset, our tendency to cheer when someone we oppose gets exposed, and connects it to how social media algorithms reinforce that impulse. Jesus disrupts that crowd mentality entirely, meeting the woman not with condemnation but with grace and a call to a different life. Pastor John closes with a challenge for us all, who is your "gotcha," and are you willing to place that person in God's hands instead of your own?
