Open Eyes, Open Hearts

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on May 2, 2021

This Way Out

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 28, 2023

All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. 3 The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst 4 they said to Him, “Teacher, this ...read more

Experience The Gift Of A New Beginning

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 22, 2021

The pharisees and Scribes used this woman as a pond in their scheme. In this one move, they could condemn the woman, turn the crowd against her and turn them away from the influence of Jesus. One slip of the tongue would be the end of Jesus. Yet Jesus offered a new beginning to all!

Saved From Guilt

Guilt can be crippling. Jesus did not come to condemn but to save. When Jesus died we died. We have been raised a new creation. No more the old guilty man
