About this episode

 

Saying “I’m sorry” isn’t very difficult, yet true repentance always costs us something. As we continue our week looking at what it means to turn from our wicked ways, today we’re going to look at the story of Zacchaeus and how he demonstrates the beauty found in a repentant heart. May God stir our hearts toward repentance today as we spend time in his presence.

Our Scripture for today comes from Luke 19:9-10, and today's worship is Simple Gospel by United Pursuit.
