Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - John 8 (Genesis 6:8; Revelation 12:10; 22:21; Psalms 103:8; 145:8; John 1:14 & 17; 8:1-11 & 36; Ephesians 2:7-9; Deuteronomy 22:22; Exodus 31:18; Galatians 2:20; Romans 5:20)
Have you ever messed up?
Maybe it was something small — or maybe it was a big deal. Mistakes have a way of bringing guilt, shame, and regret into our lives.
In John 8, we read about a woman who messed up big time — and got caught. The enemy tried to shame and condemn her, but then Jesus stepped in and did the unexpected. Yes, God hates sin — but He deeply loves us. And through Jesus, He offers mercy and grace that change everything.
This is a message we all need, because we all mess up. But here's the good news: Your failure doesn’t have to be the end — not when you have Jesus.
Series description:
Have you ever experienced something that completely threw you off because it was so different from what you expected?
When we read the Gospels, it's easy to wonder why so many people rejected Jesus. Why didn’t they recognize Him as the Messiah and worship Him?
The truth is—everything about Jesus was unexpected. From the way He entered the world—born to poor parents and laid in a manger—to the way He loved and forgave sinners, outcasts, and even enemies.
The Gospel of John is especially unique because it highlights the surprising, counter-cultural things Jesus said and did. It shows us a Savior who pursued personal relationships with the most unlikely people.
Through John’s account, we’re invited to take a journey and experience the unexpected grace and love of Jesus—a love that still transforms lives today.
