Impossible Forgiveness

Free of Charge

Forgiveness seems impossible - even when we know we should. We find the power to forgive when we forgive with God, empowered by the Holy Spirit to participate in Jesus' sacrifice. When we forgive, we join God in creating a new reality - a gift of living free from the charge of the guilt of our sin.

From Series: "Free of Charge"

We live in a world where nothing is free. In a culture that so lacks grace, how can we be the generous, loving people we were created to be? In this series, based on the work of theologian Miroslav Volf, we'll explore the surprising link between giving and forgiving. Join us as we find surprising freedom in generosity and grace!

We ended 2012 in the Revelation, exploring how Jesus’ coming into our lives is the End of the World as we know it. But if Jesus’ coming is the End, it’s also a new beginning. Jesus’ death and resurrection reconnect us with God, open up a world that has been lost to us since Sin entered into the world. So to kick off 2013, we’re going to dive into Genesis 1-2. We’ll explore God’s original intentions for the world, and the implications for our new life in Jesus. After all, in the new year, it’s good to get the First Things First!
