Speaker: Dr. Carroll Marr Series: Mental Health Sermon title: Forgiveness is Required if Freedom is Desired Scripture: Matthew 18:21-35 1.What is forgiveness? 2.Does God expect me to forgive? 3.Why should I forgive? 4. How do I forgive? ?Episode Description Title: Forgiveness is Required if Freedom is Desired | Mental Health Series Speaker: Dr. Carroll Marr Scripture:Matthew 18:21-35 ?How is your soul? ??We often make resolutions for our physical health or our finances, but we rarely resolve to heal our souls. In this installment of the "Mental Health" series, Dr. Carroll Marr explores the "forgotten resolution" that stands between you and true emotional freedom: Forgiveness. ?Using the powerful backdrop of Matthew 18 and the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant, Dr. Marr tackles four critical questions:? What is forgiveness? (It’s more than just "wiping the slate.") Does God expect me to forgive? (Understanding the "70 times 7" lifestyle.) Why should I forgive? (The hidden "torturers" of stress and bitterness.) How do I forgive? (The choice to let go of the "bell rope.")? If you are carrying a debt that isn't yours to pay, or if a past hurt is still "in the room" with you, this message offers a practical and compassionate roadmap to letting go. Learn why forgiveness isn't about forgetting the pain—it's about releasing the offender so that you can finally process your own healing. ?"Forgiveness is absolutely required if freedom is desired. You will never know true freedom until you embrace the reality of forgiveness."
