More Than You've Been Told

from Awaken Church Hosted by Awaken Church

Many people respond to a version of Jesus constructed by culture or past hurt rather than meeting the real Jesus found in Scripture. In Luke 7:36-50, Simon the Pharisee kept Jesus at arm's length through religious labels, while an unnamed woman approached with desperate authenticity. Simon's labels maintained safe distance, but the woman had nothing left but Jesus. Grace responds to our need, not our reputation. Jesus forgave the woman before any evidence of transformation, showing that grace comes first and creates readiness for change. ★ Support this podcast ★
