#6024 Forgiveness

Send us a Text Message - include your name!In this episode of Faith Over Breakfast, Pastor Andy and Pastor Eric talk through forgiveness by working with the final verses of Ephesians 4. Forgiveness is one of those Christian words we use often, but it can become thin if we are not careful. Is forgiveness the same as pretending nothing happened? Does it require immediate trust? Does it mean justice no longer counts?Andy and Eric consider what forgiveness is, what it is not, and why Paul connects it so directly to the kindness and mercy of God in Christ. At the center of the conversation is the cross, where Jesus absorbs the weight of sin and opens a way for us to release our demand to make things right on our own terms. Forgiveness does not erase the wound or deny the wrong. It hands justice back to God and begins the difficult work of walking in mercy.Support the showSupport"Faith Over Breakfast with Pastors Andy & Eric" is a weekly podcast where Pastors Andy and Eric come together over a imaginary delicious breakfast to talk about faith, food, sermons, culture, and more.
