Between Sundays
Why Did Jesus Share a Meal With "Sinners and Scum"?

IN THIS EPISODE: In this episode of Between Sundays, Tyler, Maron, and Barry return to the Gospel of Matthew (chapters 8–9) to talk tax collectors, table fellowship, and the transforming power of Jesus' mercy. What does it mean that Jesus called someone like Matthew, a despised collaborator and social outcast, to follow Him? Why did Jesus share a meal with "sinners and scum"? And what do ancient customs like reclining at the table, status symbols, and mercy over sacrifice still teach us about following Jesus today? We're diving deep into Week 9 of the Follow Me series at Grace Church, unpacking: - Jesus' absolute authority and radical inclusion - The cultural and spiritual weight of eating together - Why Matthew's calling is a turning point in God's new kingdom - Hosea 6:6, mercy vs. sacrifice, and what that means for church today - What it looks like to extend mercy even to the people we judge... or just don't want at our table Plus, we tackle a bunch of big questions: - What makes someone open to mercy? - Is mercy optional for Christians? - Can churches be built on mercy instead of sacrifice? - Did tax collectors choose their path—and could they quit? We also answer a few fun mailbag questions, including: - What's your most-used emoji? - Where do you go in Scripture on hard days? - Favorite Between Sundays moment from 300 episodes!

Read OnlineJesus addressed this parable to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else. “Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.” Luke 18:9–10This Scripture passage introduces the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector. They both go to the Temple to pray, but their prayers are very different from each other. The prayer of the Pharisee is very dishonest, whereas the prayer of the tax collector is exceptionally sincere and honest. Jesus concludes by saying that the tax collector went home justified but not the Pharisee. He states, “...for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”True humility is simply being honest. Too often in life we are not honest with ourselves and, therefore, are not honest with God. Thus, for our prayer to be true prayer, it must be honest and humble. And the humble truth for all of our lives is best expressed by the prayer of the tax collector who prayed, “O God, be merciful to me a sinner.”How easy is it for you to admit your sin? When we understand the mercy of God, this humility is much easier. God is not a God of harshness but is a God of the utmost mercy. When we understand that God's deepest desire is to forgive us and to reconcile us to Himself, then we will deeply desire honest humility before Him.Lent is an important time for us to deeply examine our conscience and make new resolutions for the future. Doing so will bring new freedom and grace into our lives. So do not be afraid to honestly examine your conscience so as to see your sin clearly in the way God sees it. Doing so will put you in a position to pray this prayer of the tax collector: “O God, be merciful to me a sinner.”Reflect, today, upon your sin. What do you struggle with the most right now? Are there sins from your past that you have never confessed? Are there ongoing sins that you justify, ignore and are afraid to face? Take courage and know that honest humility is the road to freedom and the only way to experience justification before God.My merciful Lord, I thank You for loving me with a perfect love. I thank You for Your incredible depth of mercy. Help me to see all of my sin and to turn to You with honesty and humility so that I can be freed of these burdens and become justified in Your sight. Jesus, I trust in You.Barent Fabritius, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Romans 3:10 by Josh Head “Hesed is when the one from whom I should expect nothing instead gives me everything.” - Michael Card   “Jesus' statement here goes back to the Sermon on the Mount. The kind of righteousness Jesus demands surpasses the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees. It doesn't surpass the righteousness of scribes and Pharisees by being more scrupulous than theirs. It surpasses the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees by being a redemptive righteousness, a righteousness of compassion and healing. Jesus has a different program for Israel's redemption: not holiness by separation but compassion for tax collectors and sinners.” - Peter Leithart   Application 1: Put on a Heart of Compassion   Colossians 3:12   “The parents most able to give grace to their children are the ones who regularly remember the grace that they've received. - Paul David Tripp   “The people most well-equipped to be compassionate to others are the ones who regularly reflect on how God has been compassionate to them.”   Application 2: Regularly Remember Your Salvation

We focus on the Parable of the Sower, the Parable of the Weeds, the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, and Jesus's encounter with the Rich Ruler. These narratives challenge us to self-reflect: What type of spiritual soil are we? Are we sons of the kingdom or sons of Satan? Are we self-righteous Pharisees or humble tax collectors? Through these parables, Jesus illuminates the true standard of perfection and the need for God's mercy.Bible ReadingsMatthew 13:1-53Matthew 13:10-17Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!
