Have you ever believed a lie that your sin makes you unlovable to God?

I think we all have at one time or another.

We will look today at the story of the woman caught in adultery.

For some reason, every time I read this story, it surprises me again. God is oftentimes

different than we expect, much kinder, in fact. May today be no different. I pray you're met by a generous,

kind, merciful Savior as you open your heart to him.

Welcome to the First 15 podcast.

Thank you. Our scripture for today comes from John chapter 8 verse 7.

Scripture says,

Let Him who is without sin among you

be the first to throw a stone at her.

The story of the woman caught in adultery

is one of the most powerful depictions

of God's heart to meet man in the midst of sin and show grace.

Scripture says,

Early in the morning he came again to the temple.

All the people came to him and he sat down and taught them.

The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery.

And placing her in the midst, they said to him,

Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery.

Now in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such women.

So what do you say?
