Relief from Regret
from Brewing Theology With Teer Hardy Hosted by Teer Hardy
The Big Relief | Relief from Regret Romans 5:1-11 Luke 7:36-50 September 21, 2025 Rev. Teer Hardy Or as David Zahl says, “Forgiveness may be a miracle, but that doesn’t mean it’s unavailable.” In fact, in Christ, it is the most available thing in the room. That’s Romans 5 with skin on it. That’s what it looks like when “while we were still sinners, Christ died for us”[vi] gets lived out in a real life. She brought her regret to the only One who could bear it, and what she got in return was not shame, not judgment, but peace. And that’s the invitation for you, for me, for anyone who limps into church carrying regrets too heavy to keep shouldering. So, the next time you’re stuck in an airport, eating bad chicken wings, and CNN, Fox, or MSNBC is blaring the sins of the world on an endless loop, remember this: Jesus isn’t interested in running your failures as “breaking news.” He’s not cataloging your regrets for the evening broadcast. He’s looking you in the eye, like he did with that woman at Simon’s dinner party, and saying: “Your sins are forgiven. Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.” Get full access to Brewing Theology with Teer Hardy at teerhardy.substack.com/subscribe
