27 Oct 2019 - Rev. John Howanstine has us consider the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector. Jesus looks on the human heart, and he justifies those who are penitent and humble, acknowledging their need for mercy. Our God's nature is always to have mercy. So let us move from contrition to a resting trust in the holy love of our Abba Father.
