Justice and Mercy Part 3: Not 3% better!
Tuesday, 6 October, 2026
We've all had those speeches, where someone tells us that "You can do better!"We can often assume that somehow this is what our life in Jesus is about -- a weekly motivational speech, a challenge to be 3% more holy than the last week.Reflecting on Jesus' parable of the vineyard and the killed servants (Matthew 21) as well as Paul word's the Philippians, Pastor Rob offers that the gap between the world of justice and mercy that we long for and the world of justice and mercy we inhabit is not going to be crossed by each of us simply doing 5% more.Instead, Paul talks about how our life will become conformed to Jesus as we experience the cross and empty tomb in our lives.
