    Forgiven & Forgiving Series

    Contributed by Josh Foster on Feb 26, 2014
     | 5,302 views

    Our relationship with God begins with forgiveness; but forgiveness is at the heart of relationships with fellow Christians. Forgiveness is not a commodity that we receive. It impacts our life to the degree that we want to share what we've received.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,212 views

     | 16,025 views

The flames and smoke have forced you out of the window and onto the ledge. You are hanging onto the ledge to avoid the flames and ...read more
