“The Nonnegotiable Virtue: Forgiveness” – June 6th, 2018
Dear Church Family,
In his excellent book, “The Art of Forgiveness,” Lewis Smede writes, “We Forgive when we feel God’s Spirit nudging us with an impulse to pull ourselves out of the sludge of our disabling resentment.” Forgiveness is crucial for individuals and for a local body of Christ. The spiritual, emotional, and perhaps physical aspects of our lives are dependent upon heart felt forgiveness.
On Sunday we will be looking at 2 Corinthians 2:5-11. The message title is “ The Nonnegotiable Virtue: Forgiveness.” Other helpful verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s Word are Matthew 18:15-18, John 20:22-23, and Genesis 50:15-21. May the Lord bless our time together as we study this important passage and theme of forgiveness.
Have a wonderful day as you bask in the glory of having been forgiven by your Lord. God bless you and have a great day!
Because of Him,
Pastor Joe
