In this story of the woman caught in adultery, we see that Jesus bestows His amazing grace in the midst of the judgment of others. It’s so easy for us to get angry with those who sin differently than we do. Jesus challenges our grace-killing attitudes and gives this woman a fresh start.
Text: John 8:2-11Most of us are accustomed to getting what we work for, of receiving what is due to us. In this parable, Jesus challenges us with the scandal of grace – He gives freely to people no matter how hard they work for it. While we love the benefits of grace, it’s often difficult for us when that same grace is bestowed on others.
