A woman comes home from a sixteen hour shift to changed locks and everything she owns stacked on the curb for the trash truck. Her question is the question every person east of Eden carries, will I ever have a permanent home?

In this second message, we turn to Luke 23:39-43, where a condemned robber with a few breaths left hangs beside Jesus and hears, today you will be with me in paradise. The garden lost in Genesis 3 is being opened again from a cursed tree.

This lesson reminds us that Jesus is eager to save, and that he saves without help. The thief had nothing to offer, no time to fix what he had broken, and no doctrine to recite. If you are asked why you should be let in, the answer never starts with you. The man on the middle cross said you could come.
