It is often easy to judge those around us. While we may consider them liars, cheats, thieves, beggars, or adulterers, it is easy to forget that we are all sinners. The Sinner tells the story from Luke 7:36-50 where a woman entered the house of a Pharisee where Jesus was having dinner. Immediately she began to weep and wash His feet with perfume as well as her tears and her hair. As expected, the Pharisee promptly labeled her as the sinner that she was but Jesus, instead of passing judgment, offered her forgiveness. You see, while man only saw her sin, Jesus saw her heart.
In The Sinner, Ron DiCianni beautifully modernizes this story by showing the woman as the sinner that she was but ghosted in the background as the saint she desperately wanted to be. There is no difference between that woman two millennia ago and us today. Just as Christ came and died for the sins of this woman, He died for each one of us as well.
