Have you ever gone to extreme lengths just to help someone you love? Maybe you’ve rearranged your whole schedule, drained your savings, or driven through the night — not because it was easy, but because it mattered. Love gets creative. Faith gets bold. Desperation breaks through ceilings. As we continue our journey to the cross in this series, Father, Forgive Them, we’re leaning in to the scandal and the beauty of forgiveness — the kind that breaks barriers, rewrites stories, and reaches deeper than we often expect. Last week, we asked the question: Who needs forgiveness? And we saw that Jesus offers it to the person the world least expects — a woman with a past, and a heart that runs toward grace. Today, we’re looking at a moment where forgiveness doesn’t just walk through the front door — it comes through the roof. And what Jesus says and does in this moment doesn’t just shift the room — it rattles the entire religious system. Because Jesus isn’t just willing to forgive… He’s determined to. He doesn’t wait for us to get everything right. He honors faith that risks, that carries, that climbs — and He offers healing that starts in the soul. Let’s step into this story — not just to admire the miracle, but to meet the Savior who still sees our need… and speaks forgiveness before we even ask.
