    The Power Of Forgiveness Series

     | 96,665 views

    Many times, the one thing that paralyzes us is the unwillingness to seek forgiveness or the bitter spirit that won’t grant it to someone else.

    We are a funny group of people. We are sue happy. We sue for everything from a hot cup of coffee to hurt feelings. Forgiveness has become a lost art. Now everything is about revenge, getting even, making someone pay. Sadly enough, it’s drifted from the secular world into churches today. When we ...read more

    Our society teaches us that the more significant we are, the more impact we can have. Is that true? The reality is that our significance comes only through the Lord Jesus Christ.

    To anyone who knows her, Joanne is not a significant person. Honestly, chances are, Joanne will never accomplish anything significant. In the town that she lives in, Joanne is never going to be someone who people in town will see as an important person. Joanne is the person the people in town would ...read more

    supposed to be, right? Not always, and not now. God doesn’t relieve us of all responsibility and do all the work for us. He empowers us, and we get started. And maybe it is a small start. A few boulders moved, a few shovels of dirt thrown to the s

    We cannot please God by means of our own effort, but only by means of the Holy Spirit’s power.

    God calls on everyone to reject the idea that they can justify themselves by their own good works. That’s what everyone who has yet to come to Christ is doing - seeking to justify themselves in the sight of God, in the sight of others or in their own sight. Religion leads to the “comparison ...read more

The story is a compelling reminder of the impotence of ...read more
