It is a scandal!! A sinful woman -- uninvited -- comes to the house of Pharisee, for the Pharisee is hosting Jesus for a meal. The woman begins to wash his feet, anoint his feet with perfume, kiss them and dry it with her hair. At first it all seems clear; the woman is lost. But as we reflect more on the scandal of the scene, we are forced to realize that it is not her who is truly lost. Based on Luke 7:36-50.
