JESUS: FACE OF GOD’S MERCY: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 5TH SUNDAY OF LENT, CYCLE C, 2025

In the story of the woman caught in adultery, we encounter the loving visible face of God’s mercy in Jesus Christ.  This changes our image and concepts of God in Christianity from a God who seeks to destroy or punish us for our sins to a God who hates our sins but loves and cherishes us poor sinners.
