A look at the Saviour of second chances

Caught in the Act!

"From the moment the church elders burst into her home, Mary knew she was a dead woman. There
would be no plea-bargaining, no mercy. She'd been caught in the act of adultery.

"Searching for a hint of compassion in their cold, harsh faces, Mary only saw her accusers--many her
former customers--trying to out shout each other to camouflage their own guilt. She turned to the man
who spent the last hours promising love. He was gone. She was all alone."

No story in the Bible better illustrates Jesus' mission on earth than does the story of Mary Magdalene.
Presumed to be worthless and hopeless by her church and community, Jesus' actions showed a
different face of God.

Beloved author and retreat speaker Kay Rizzo shares Mary's story in heart-opening ways that touch our
lives today. Watch as she unfolds the drama . . .

"Thrust into the center of a condemning mob, Mary's eyes swam with tears. Clutching her torn bodice to
her breast, she found herself face to face with the Man who had become her Judge and Jury. Hearing
death in the voices of her accusers, Mary held no hope in her heart. Little did she know she actually
stood face to face with forgiveness.

"As Jesus turned to the woman cringing before Him, I can imagine a gentle smile crossing His face. His
gaze revealed what no one could see. While others spat anger and abuse at a sniveling slut, He saw a
regal princess waiting to be set free.

"Mary's story brings hope to the most guilt-ridden sinner. No matter what you've done or where your sin
has taken you, sweet forgiveness can be yours. You may not have Mary's burdens or guilt. But if
something in your heart is holding you back from being the child of God you want to be, then stop and
look deeply into Jesus' eyes. As Mary was, you will be astounded by the love you see there--the love
Jesus has for you personally."

"Come and stand with Mary--Face to Face With Forgiveness."
