Washing Feet

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Aug 7, 2024

Toward the end of last year I mentioned that for 2024 there would be a heavy emphasis on discipleship.

The Issue Of Unforgiveness And Bitterness

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 2, 2022

Bitterness is a weed whose root is unforgiveness. Whether it's from a bitter breakup, divorce, rejection, abandonment, or whatever, if we refuse to forgive in those situations, bitterness takes hold of our lives. And where there is bitterness, there can be no love and no peace.

One of the secret sins believers can be easily guilty of is being unwilling to forgive which leads to bitterness. Even though it is often assumed to be more acceptable, unforgiveness is no less an offense to God than any other sin. It is the failure to deal with forgiveness that produces ...read more
