He shares the story from John 4, where Jesus meets a woman burdened with shame, offering her grace without conditions.
Aaron brings this ancient encounter to life, reminding us that Jesus doesn’t expose our flaws to shame us, but rather to heal us. With a refreshing perspective, Aaron challenges the notion that we need to perform or pretend to earn God's love. Instead, he encourages honesty and vulnerability as pathways to true transformation. The episode is a heartfelt reminder that guilt can often be a barrier to recovery, keeping us isolated and away from the support we need.
