Summary

Jesus cleanses a leper in Mark 1:40–45, revealing His willingness to touch and heal those branded by shame and stigma. The sermon explores how poisonous shame—distinct from guilt—leads us to hide from God and others, and how Christ's substitutionary healing foreshadows His cross, where He bears our contamination so we can walk free.

Highlights

Guilt is a position, shame is a perspective. Guilt is a position of legality, it says I did something wrong. Shame is a perspective of identity, it says I am something wrong.

I agree with Jesus. He says I can leave. I can leave. He says I'm clean. I'm clean. I agree with Jesus.

Jesus was contaminated so that you actually could be clean in that area. You can walk away from that room. You can walk away in freedom.
