A lot of Christians respond to forgiveness along these lines...
"Jesus died on the cross and rose again on the third day. My sins are forgiven. I got it! Can we move on?"
My response to that usually is, "Really? Do you really get it?"
I mean if we really got it, then why are so many of us broken by bitterness and anger? Why do we struggle with letting go? Why do those sickening emotions well up inside of us each and every time we hear that person's name or see them at those annual holiday gatherings?
This weekend at City on a Hill Church, we'll be talking about forgiveness. Forgiveness is too great an issue for us to stop talking about it. There's too much that God wants to say to us about it. Trust me. You haven't heard it all.
Please join us on Sunday @ 11am.
