Summary

This Palm Sunday sermon focuses on maintaining gratitude and remembrance of God's forgiveness and grace. Using the story of the sinful woman who anointed Jesus' feet with expensive oil from Luke 7, Pastor Peters emphasizes the importance of not forgetting what God has delivered us from and maintaining our initial love and passion for Christ. The message contrasts the woman's extravagant worship with Simon the Pharisee's judgmental attitude, highlighting how those who have been forgiven much, love much.
