Episode 114 Envisioning The Lovingkindness of Christ with Music and Meditations by Karyn Lynn Grant

Ep # 114  Envisioning The Lovingkindness of Christ with Music and Mediations by Karyn Lynn Grant, The Joy Coach

Join us for this week's episode as we explore the boundless, forgiving, and irresistible love of the Savior.

Three remarkable women from the New Testament take center stage in this episode, each encountering Christ in moments of deep judgment and despair:

The woman who poured perfume on the Savior's feet, scorned by Simon the Pharisee for being a sinner.

 The woman nearly stoned for her transgressions, condemned by the Sanhedrin.

The woman who suffered from an issue of blood for twelve years, ostracized by her community as unclean.

In each of their stories, we witness how mortal judgment sought to cast them aside—whether from an individual, a council of men, or an unknowing multitude. Yet, Christ saw beyond their circumstances. He knew their hearts. Where others condemned, He forgave. Where others turned away, He drew near.

Visualize the love of Jesus, tender and unwavering, as He offers these women what no one else could; redemption, healing, and acceptance. His mercy extends to all, reminding us that no matter how the world may judge us, His arms remain open.

7. How does faith play a role in the healing of the woman with the issue of blood?

8. What barriers; physical, emotional, or societal, might prevent people today from reaching out to Christ?

9. In what ways can we show Christlike compassion to those who feel rejected or unworthy?

10. How does Christ's ability to see beyond outward appearances or past mistakes inspire you?

11. What steps can you take to more fully accept Christ's love and forgiveness in your own life?

12. How can you extend the same mercy to others that Christ extends to you?

Let this episode be a reminder that Christ's love is for all. His mercy knows no limits. His embrace is always open.

Tune in and allow the Savior's love to transform the way you see yourself and others.
