This sermon reveals the "secret sauce" of the Christian life to be "by grace for good works," using the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector to illustrate that a desperate pursuit of self-righteousness and external approval is a universal problem. It proclaims that true righteousness is not achieved through human effort but is a gift received through the finished work of Jesus, which then empowers a joyful and spontaneous life of good works.
