FORGIVE // Just As God

FORGIVE // Just As God

Have you ever been hurt by someone? How do you respond? Maybe you retaliate, unfriend, block, or simply walk away. There is another option...God wants you to forgive! That's tough! For eight weeks, we will be looking at different relationship dynamics and the incredibly challenging, yet freeing, choice to forgive. God wants to clean your heart!

“The juxtaposition of these two processions embodies the central conflict of Jesus’s last week: the kingdom of God or the kingdom of imperial domination. What we call Palm Sunday featured a choice of two kingdoms, two visions of life on earth.”
