What does it mean to be truly transformed by God's love? In Pastor Bogdan's powerful message from John 13, he unveils how Jesus's radical grace operates contrary to worldly expectations. Drawing from Peter's story of denial and restoration, he illustrates how Christ's love precedes our performance rather than depending on it. Through vivid examples—from the prodigal son's celebration to his personal experience with dessert before dinner—Pastor Bogdan demonstrates that God's "reckless" grace offers restoration before we prove ourselves worthy. The sermon's heart-stirring truth reveals that while we are indeed weaker than we imagine, Jesus is far more faithful than we dare hope. His love doesn't wait for our perfection but pursues us even in our failures, guaranteeing restoration before we fall. This message calls believers to stop striving to be their own heroes and instead trust in Christ's unfailing love that already knows our failures yet chooses to love us completely.

Let's get ready to find hope in Jesus, by listening to this message.
