Falling Short

Peter, Judas & Epstein

Tom Kang

·

In the powerful conclusion of our "Falling Hope" series, Pastor Tom Kang contrasts the paths of Peter and Judas, showing us the vital difference between worldly regret and godly repentance.

Pastor Tom also addresses the tension between grace and justice, using recent headlines regarding the Epstein files to illustrate that true restoration requires accountability. He reminds us that grace without honesty is merely a cover-up, and that the Gospel demands both mercy for the repentant and justice for the vulnerable.

Join us as we learn to stop hiding and step into the redeeming light of Jesus, who meets us in our failure, not to shame us, but to restore us.

Scripture: Matthew 27:3-5 · 2 Corinthians 7:10 · John 18:18 · John 21:9 · Psalm 32:3-5
