Families Under Fire I, It Hurts So Bad

Building on the principles of reconciliation, this message explains that it occurs in two stages: forgiveness and rebuilding. It clarifies that forgiveness is a choice to cancel a debt rather than a feeling or a passive forgetting of the offense. Using the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant, the sermon warns that our own relationship with God is hindered if we refuse to forgive those who owe us.
