Forgiveness | Overcoming Regrets
Shared on: Aug 30, 2016
The Bible is full of people who mess up in massive ways. Instead of God pointing them as a negative example, He often shows the depths of his love and compassion through His response to them. Even if people don't struggle with a sin that leaves them drowning in guilt, we all have sin we wish wasn't a part of our story. This bundle will help people hear in fresh ways of how the power of forgiveness not only reconnects us with God, but empowers us to forgive and accept ourselves.
