    Big Idea: Forgiveness is healing the wound, even if it leaves a scar. Forgiving others means choosing not to be imprisoned by the actions of our offender. Jesus will heal our wound, but the scar remains to remind us of God’s work of grace in our lives.

It became debilitating. It was only when I became aware of what my wound was keeping me from, was I willing to do ...read more

In this case, home seems to mean Peter’s home in Capernaum. Shortly before our Gospel, both Matthew and Mark share a similar record ...read more

    This Morning we look at Jesus teaching about the importance of forgiving others as we are forgiven.

    Forgiveness is easy to talk and read about in the Bible. It’s when we have to put it into practice that it can be tough! Forgiveness is wonderful idea, until there’s something to forgive.

    A lot of us are reluctant to preach on giving. Churches are often criticized for their financial appeals, yet giving is an act of discipleship, devotion, and worship.

    A minister wanted to impress his congregation with the need to increase giving. He described extensive repairs required to overhaul the sanctuary. Just as he was about to ask the ushers to come forward for the offering, a piece of plaster fell from the ceiling and hit a man square on the head. ...read more
