In this sermon from the Draw Near series, Pastor Josh Hersey teaches from Luke 7:36–50, unpacking the story of the sinful woman with the alabaster jar and the Pharisee who invited Jesus into his home but failed to honor Him. This message explores the difference between surface-level faith and full surrender, revealing how religious familiarity can keep Jesus in the courtyard of our lives while true repentance leads us to worship at His feet. Through rich biblical context, this teaching answers questions about what surrender to Jesus really looks like, the meaning of true repentance, and why the gospel is not about self-righteousness but humility, grace, and love. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to surrender all to Jesus, this message will challenge and encourage you to lay everything down before Him.
