Pastors John Mury and Dave Swaim discuss Luke 7:36-50: "While Jesus is reclining at dinner in the home of a religious leader, a woman of shameful reputation intrudes and almost literally pours love upon Jesus. Everyone seems shocked, except for Jesus. Contrasting her effusive love with the religious leader's stingy hospitality, Jesus says, 'A person who is forgiven little shows only a little love.' Our 'goodness' (self-righteousness?) can sometimes be a greater barrier than our sin to experiencing God's love!"
