Radical Grace

Discover the beauty of God’s amazing grace and how it can completely transform a life in this powerful message about forgiveness, second chances, and freedom from shame. Through the story of a broken sinner and a group of religious accusers (John 8:1-11), this video explores how Jesus exposes hidden hypocrisy, offers complete pardon, and calls each person to leave a life of sin and walk in a new way of living. You will also be challenged to examine whether you relate more to the repentant sinner or the judgmental crowd. Watch to be reminded that grace is not something you earn, but a gift you receive, and that once you receive it, you are invited to share Jesus’ love boldly with everyone around you.

Group Discussion Questions:

1. Where do you most identify with the story - a broken sinner needing mercy or a religious onlooker quick to accuse? 

2. The woman brings only her guilt, yet receives protection, dignity, and a new start. What are some common reasons people struggle to believe that God’s grace is truly unearned, and how might that affect the way people generally relate to God?

3. Jesus does not condemn the woman, but he also calls her to “leave your life of sin.” How would you explain the difference between using grace as an excuse to keep sinning and allowing grace to motivate real change in someone’s life?

4. When people see sin in others, what are some typical “stone-throwing” responses, and what might it look like instead to respond with both grace and truth, as Jesus does in John 8? What is one concrete way you can move from criticism toward compassionate, honest grace in how you speak and act?

5. If grace is truly an unearned gift and not something to be abused, how should it reshape the way you live tomorrow at home, at work, or in your community? Name one habit, attitude, or hidden pattern of sin you sense God inviting you to surrender, and one step you will take this week to walk in a new way.
