    Disciples Are Like Their Teacher … They Forgive Genesis 50:15-21; Matthew 18:25-35 I stumbled upon a copy of a letter that I had written back in college. It’s somewhat funny that I should find it now, because it tells of an event in my life that … well, I think I’ll just read it aloud to ...read more

    “Forgiveness” Matthew 18:21-35 Robert Warren February 17th, 2002 I have made things easy for those who come on Wednesday night, because today I want to share some thoughts from God’s word that we discussed then.

    Looking at why we should forgive.

    Lord’s Prayer 3 Forgive us our sins as we forgive others Which came first, the chicken or the egg? People have been debating that question for years and as far as I know, they have still failed to come up with an answer to it. Fortunately, as we look at the subject of forgiveness today, we are ...read more

    This is a ridiculous story about forgiveness, ridiculus but true, ridiculous but filled with grace.

    17 Pentecost A Matthew 18:21-35 September 15, 2002 Rev. Roger Haugen The story of Jean Valjean, written by Victor Hugo, is powerful. It is the story of a man driven by hunger and poverty to steal bread to feed his family. He is imprisoned and the anger at the injustice results in his striking ...read more

    So often we require justice, but we need to live out of grace, continually forgiving!

    WHERE IS THE GRACE? This past week we have been re-inundated with stories of terror. Stories of loss, shock, pain, grief… By now we’re all too familiar with the scenes and the headlines And I could go on and tell some of the stories of September 11, but I sense that we’ve really had enough of ...read more

    An important step to healing after tragedies like 9-11 is forgiveness. But how is it possible? (17th Sunday after Pentecost)

    FORGIVING—WHEN YOUR WORLD FALLS APART (Matthew 18:21-35) (Review the Gospel lesson, Matthew 18:21-35. Peter asks, “How many times should I forgive?” Jesus gives a number, but his point is that we should ask another question: “How many times does God forgive me?” Put yourselves in the shoes of the ...read more

    Based on the parable of the Unmerciful Servant Matthew 18:21-35 about forgiving others as we are forgiven

    Peter begins by asking Jesus a question, "how many times must I forgive my brother, up to seven times? This would have been a very generous act in those days as God had finished his work of creation and on the seventh day rested, seven was a perfect number. So Peter thought he was being very ...read more

    The other day I saw an advertisement for Karate Lessons, and it made me think about the different lessons people usually take (Golf Lessons, Piano Lessons, Gun Saftey Lessons, etc.) But I’ve never seen an advertisement for lessons on one of the most important things we’ll ever do - lessons on how ...read more

    If you cannot or will not forgive, you are a puppet in the hands of the one who harmed you.

    Actress Molly Ringwold learned Survivor Tip #4 somewhere along the way, saying "From my experience, forgiving is the only way to survive." Obviously, we would be mistaken if we took our survivor tips directly from Hollywood. Unfortunately, many people do. But Molly Ringwold’s survivor tip didn’t ...read more

    We are blessed when our sins are forgiven... how much greater is the blessing when we can forgive those who wrong us.

    God Is Merciful-- Are We? MT 18:21-35 Today’s scripture reminds me of the story told about Gen. Robert E. Lee after the civil war.

    This study looks at the incredible depth of God’s forgiveness and also His requirement for us to forgive.

    God’s Forgives. God Requires Forgiveness. One of the greatest challenges to human nature is the issue of forgiveness. Those who can’t forgive themselves are filled with guilt and despair, and those who won’t forgive others are filled with anger and bitterness. The most miserable people are the ...read more

    Forgiveness- What Do We Carry And What Do We Let Go?

    Forgiveness is not about accepting that something wrong is somehow right, or trying to forget it: a prayerful reflection on Matthew 18.

    Today I would like to say a few words about things in our lives that we carry and things that we let go. I find today’s Gospel reading one of the most challenging in the Bible. With any apology, Jesus talks quite bluntly about the forgiveness God offers to us, and the expectation God has of us, as ...read more

    How to move toward forgiving those who have hurt you the most over the years.

    Forgiveness is hard. When somebody does something that cuts our heart or damages our feelings, it’s difficult to forgive. But the difficulty of forgiveness is exponentially harder when the person we are trying to forgive has been in our life for years. A father or a mother, a brother or ...read more
