How do you become a grateful person?In this reflection on Psalm 103, John Ortberg explores one of the great themes of spiritual life: gratitude.At the center of Psalm 103 is a simple command:"Forget not all His benefits."Drawing from philosopher Robert C. Roberts and the rich imagery of the Psalm itself, John explores why gratitude grows through remembering and why forgetting often leads to entitlement.This episode explores:- Psalm 103 and gratitude- The meaning of the soul- The logic of gratitude- God's forgiveness and compassion- Remembering God's benefits- Gratitude as a spiritual practiceScriptures:- Psalm 103- Luke 7- Deuteronomy 6- Leviticus 19#Psalm103 #JohnOrtberg #Gratitude #Thankfulness #Prayer #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #Psalms #Soul

Some of us are really good at keeping score. Who showed up. Who didn't. Who said the thing. Who should've known better. And if we're honest…we don't just keep score for others. We keep it for ourselves too.This Sunday, we're stepping into a moment in the life of Jesus where all of that gets turned upside down. It's a story about forgiveness, but maybe not in the way you've heard it before. It's about tears, awkward silence, judgment in the room…and a kind of love that refuses to play by the usual rules.
The Jewish religious leaders brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery to Jesus. After the accusers left one by one, Jesus told the woman to go and sin no more. Jesus forgave the woman, and he did not condemn her.

What does it really mean to love others the way Jesus calls us to? Looking at the story of the sinful woman in Luke 7, we're reminded that love doesn't come from trying harder, but from realizing how much we've been forgiven. When we lose sight of God's grace in our own lives, compassion fades. But when we see it clearly, love begins to overflow. The one who is forgiven much, loves much.

Send a textForgiveness is one of the most challenging teachings of Jesus, but it is also one of the most freeing. In this episode of Jesus Sisters, we explore what the Bible says about forgiveness, the danger of unforgiveness, and how bitterness can quietly affect our hearts, our peace, and our relationship with God. Jesus teaches that when we understand how much we have been forgiven, it changes the way we treat others. Through the cross, our debt of sin was canceled, and we are invited to extend that same mercy to the people around us.If you are struggling with unforgiveness or learning how to forgive someone who hurt you, this episode walks through powerful Scriptures that reveal the freedom found in Christ.Key Scriptures referenced:Matthew 5:23–24Matthew 6:12, 14–15Matthew 7:1–2Matthew 18:21–35Luke 6:27–37Luke 7:47Luke 22:54–62Luke 23:34Mark 11:25John 21:15–17Genesis 50:20Romans 12:191 Corinthians 13:5Ephesians 1:7Ephesians 4:31–32Colossians 1:14Colossians 2:13–14Hebrews 9:22Hebrews 12:15James 2:13Nehemiah 9:17Psalm 103:10–12Micah 7:18–19Email: jesussisters316@gmail.comFacebook: Jesus Sisters© Jesus Sisters 2020.

In Luke 7:36-50, we read the very tender story of a woman who had the audacity to anoint Jesus with very expensive perfume oil. This was done by her as an act of pure love (in preparation for His death as it turns out). The most amazing thing here? She went into the home of a Pharisee to do this! Her very presence in Simon the Pharisee's home meant it created a huge social problem for him. She would have been considered "unclean" and therefore, his home would have been considered that as well, due to her presence.

34. Forgiven Much, Love Much (Luke 7:36-50) by Church in the Square (Sermon Audio)
In this message we examine Luke 7:36–50,(remastered) where a sinful woman anoints Jesus' feet and He uses a parable of debt to show that great forgiveness produces great love. The episode explains how transformed lives testify to the gospel and emphasizes salvation by faith alone, through the Word. The Word challenges listeners to witness to all people, recognizes the freedom to call on God for salvation, and reminds the Child of God to a visible, thankful faith that reflects true forgiveness.
05/10/2025 Gospel Sermon on: Luke 7 : 36 - 50 36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat. 37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, "This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner." 40 And Jesus answered and said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." So he said, "Teacher, say it." 41 "There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?" 43 Simon answered and said, "I suppose the one whom he forgave more." And He said to him, "You have rightly judged." 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little." 48 Then He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven." 49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?" 50 Then He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace." Glory be to God forever.

Are you carrying an invisible backpack filled with burdens like guilt, shame, and regret? In his powerful sermon, Pastor Phil Ayres invites us to reflect on the parable of Jesus and the contrasting responses to forgiveness. Through the story of a woman who poured her gratitude on Jesus' feet and a Pharisee who remained distant and prideful, Phil illustrates that true faith involves not just religious rituals but an open heart. He emphasizes that while many may attend church, not everyone invites Jesus into their hearts. With relatable anecdotes, including the metaphor of heavy backpacks on life's journey, he encourages us to release the burdens we don't need and allow Jesus to carry them. Phil reminds us that understanding the depth of our own forgiveness unlocks our capacity to love others. He urges everyone—whether you're new to faith or feeling weighed down by past mistakes—to come forward for healing and release from these emotional weights. Don't leave today with that same burden; embrace the life-changing grace of Jesus. Discover more by watching the full sermon and take this transformative step towards peace and freedom.
I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Monday morning, the 9th of June, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Gospel of Luke 8:2:“Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons,…” Then we go on a bit further to Luke 19:8: “Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold.” Wow! Now that is genuine repentance, that is genuine appreciation for what God has done for a person who is a sinner. Mary Magdalene, Mary of Magdala - I have been to Magdala, it is a little village on the shores of Lake Galilee in Israel - now Mary has been delivered from seven demons and yet, once forgiven, and healed and delivered, she became one of Jesus' most faithful followers. I always say, if you get to Heaven before me, have a look and see who the most beautiful woman is in Heaven. I know many of us will say Mary, the mother of Jesus, but I beg to differ. I believe it will be Mary Magdalene, and I believe (I am getting emotional) she will be sitting at the feet of the Messiah, because she was forgiven much. Jesus didn't patch her up; He made her into a brand-new, beautiful handmaiden. You know, after that time, she never left the Lord once. She was the first one down at the tomb in the morning after the Lord had been crucified and had been put in Joseph of Arimathea's tomb. She was the first one, not Peter, not the disciples, it was the woman who had been forgiven much, and that's what I love about her. Jim Elliot, a missionary who went to the Amazon said, “It is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” What is that? It is your life. John Newton, forgiven much, a slave ship captain - can you think of anything worse? He wrote probably the most famous hymn of all time:Amazing grace, how sweet the sound In a believer's ear,I once was lost, but now am found;I was blind, but now I see.What about Peter, the big fisherman? He said, “Lord, I will die for you,” and yet when the test came before the cock crowed, he denied his beloved Saviour three times, but God forgave him, restored him and eventually he was crucified, by his own request, upside-down, for the love of Christ. Today, love the One who has forgiven you much.Jesus bless you and goodbye.
