Day 18 Romans 3:23 | All Have Sinned. So Now What?
I used to hear Romans 3:23 as a weapon. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” It sounded condemning, heavy, and hopeless. But once I really understood it, that same verse brought me comfort and clarity.
In this Rooted and Ready video, I share how missing the mark explains sin, why this verse levels the playing field, and how it points us to our need for a Rescuer. This truth removed my pride and my shame, and helped me rest fully in Jesus.
Watch now and ask yourself: if I didn’t know I was drowning, would I ever reach for a Savior?
“…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…” Romans 3:23
Questions for personal reflection:
When have you heard Romans 3:23 used in a way that felt heavy or shame-filled?
How does the idea of “missing the mark” change how you think about sin?
Why do you think this verse removes both pride and shame at the same time?
If everyone has sinned, why is it still hard to admit our need for Jesus?
