Living Downstream

Series: Stand Alone Sermon - Living Downstream

Passage: Luke 7:36-50

Speaker: Austin Triplett

Sermon Summary: Pastor Austin reflects on the nature of grace that flows downstream, reaching us at the lowest points of our lives. He contrasts two characters from the scripture: a humble woman, who openly approaches Jesus despite her sinful reputation, and Simon, a Pharisee, who remains suspicious and judgmental due to his self-righteousness. The sermon emphasizes that true acceptance of God's grace requires recognition of our need for forgiveness, which leads to genuine love and worship of Jesus. Ultimately, Pastor encourages the congregation to embrace their identity as forgiven sinners and to live in the grace that Jesus offers.
