As we continue our Bad Role Models series, we are going to look at the ways the religious leader mistreated a woman who they caught in adultery. The woman caught in sin was invited to repent of her sins by embracing the mercy of Jesus and the religious leaders were invited to repent by recognizing their own sin. In this powerful story, we are reminded that Jesus’ mercy transforms us to living the life we are called to live and pointing others to Jesus instead of counting them out on receiving the mercy Jesus desires to give them.

Weddings are often a time for us to think about the topic of LOVE! And at many wedding ceremonies, the “love chapter” from 1 Corinthians 13 is read. When we understand the cultural context to this famous chapter of our Bible, we discover that Paul’s letter about what love looks like was not addressed to newlyweds, but rather, to a church community. While most students may not be thinking much of marriage at this age, what they can (and should) do is consider the type of person they are becoming today. The question is not "Will I be a great boyfriend, girlfriend, or spouse someday?”, but rather, “Am I becoming a more loving person today?”
