That They May Be One - Forgiveness

The Father's desire for us as His followers is that we would be one as we gather around the person of Christ. Unfortunately, we live in a polarised, fragmented and divided world, and this reality can permeate our life together as the Church—working against God's creational intent. Yet, we are called to love, to pursue oneness, and to seek unity.This series will explore the vision of a community that is one and the postures that are required to stay at the table in the face of relational tension. May we be a community of image-bearers who are truly known by our love for one another as we become a genuine and deep community that gathers around Christ.Matt continues our look at the postures required to maintain oneness in community with an exploration of forgiveness. We embrace a "ready-to-forgive" posture, which is by leaning forward in a ready-to-forgive posture even as we lean backward on the already-forgiven status we have received at the cross.
