Forgiving Challenge! New Series in September

Sermon Series
Written By Cris Escher

Discover what real freedom is like as we explore the powerful forgiveness that Jesus offers to each and every person, including you!

Far more people struggle with reconciling their own mistakes than forgiving others. While we ought always to excel in being gracious to others, Forgiving Challenge is unique because it leads its readers on a personal journey to truly understand and receive God’s forgiveness. Also, we are invited to then live out of the forgiveness that Jesus has already won for us. A forgiven person is a forgiving person.

[Sunday] Sanctification - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] Sanctification - Forgiving Challenge

True freedom is experienced through sanctification, when we realize the sins and shame the  enemy wanted to use to destroy us now becomes the means we use to not only destroy the enemy but bring others to freedom. This is Peter's story and ours as well.

[Sunday] Restoration - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] Restoration - Forgiving Challenge

While Peter may still be pining over his past, Jesus is hyper-focused on pointing Peter towards the future. Jesus restores the original call He placed on his life. Not only does God forgive you, but God loves you.

[Sunday] Absolution - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] Absolution - Forgiving Challenge

Jesus beautifully recreates Peter’s worst moment in order to show how Jesus is unafraid to enter into our worst moments, which gives us enough grace to cover even the worst parts of our stories.

[Sunday] Confession - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] Confession - Forgiving Challenge

Much like with Peter, Jesus invites all of us back into His presence through confession. But this practice simply shows Jesus positioning Himself to give us His grace, even if we don’t have the words to say how we feel.

[Sunday] Sin - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] Sin - Forgiving Challenge

Every single one of us misses the mark. As inventive, creative, and successful as humans can be in many aspects of life to overcome issues, the only way to overcome our sin is through Jesus.

[Sunday] S.C.A.R.S. - Forgiving Challenge
[Sunday] S.C.A.R.S. - Forgiving Challenge

Today we look back at the time when a resurrected Jesus burst into the disciples’ room. One of the surprising elements of the glorified body of Jesus was that scars remained on His hands. What does this weird detail say about God, and us, as we think about forgiveness and freedom?

September 10th we are starting the Forgiving Challenge.
