     | 6,641 views

    Forgiveness is a Christian Ministry that God has given the injured and the one who caused its wholeness.

    Mahatma Gandhi said, “the weak finds it difficult to forgive, because forgiveness is an attribute of the strong. But the strong that can and does forgive needs to know that their forgiveness comes from a place, a person, a strength, a power far stronger than them. Reinhold Niebuhr says, ...read more

Disputes occur for a number of reasons, some good, some bad. Often disputes come from ...read more

We have even said and done some things that we only did in the dark because we did not want the light to shine upon us. If the truth must be told, we all have done some things that we are ashamed of ...read more

    The disciples, on more than one occasion, argued over who should hold the highest position in the kingdom. Their desire was for recognition and honor in an earthly kingdom. Jesus had to refocus their thinking and I believe the same refocusing is needed by many today.
