Authentic - Forgiveness – Michael Brown
from Everyday Church Sermons Hosted by Everyday Church
What does it mean to truly forgive someone who has hurt us? In this message from our Authentic series, discover why authentic forgiveness is one of the hardest, yet most important, parts of following Jesus. Exploring Colossians 3, we learn that forgiveness flows from knowing who we are in Christ: chosen, holy, and dearly loved. Discover how Jesus’ example teaches us to forgive fully, freely, and forever, choosing to put aside bitterness and revenge and to put on compassion, kindness, humility, and love. Authentic church community can be messy, and relationships will sometimes hurt. But forgiveness makes deeper friendships and restored relationships possible. We also explore the vital difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, including why forgiveness never means accepting abuse or remaining in an unsafe situation. Listen to the full message and discover how the love of Christ can transform the way we forgive and love one another.
