    “Forgive and forget.” Those words roll off our tongues with ease, but if we’re honest they don’t roll out of our hearts with ease. Forgiveness is a challenge and forgetting is downright impossible. But grace calls us to remember.

    INTRODUCTION A. Jill Price is known as “The Woman Who Can’t Forget” – Hyper-thy-mesia –rare disorder 1. Means that she forgets nothing – every moment, every day – played out crystal clear 2. While such a memory might sound wonderful to us –trouble ...read more

    If you and I want to have relationships that last for the long haul, then we must be willing to extend forgiveness to others. In every relationship you have, you will constantly be called on to forgive and to ask for forgiveness. God will help us do this!

Jesus asked them, "Which is easier?--to say to this paralytic, 'Your sins are pardoned,' or to say, 'Rise, take up your mat, and walk?' But that you may know that the ...read more
