When someone hurts us, we wall ourselves off to stay safe, to ensure they can't hurt us anymore. But Jesus challenges us to forgive, to refuse to let our lives be ruled by what someone else did to us. Through the parable of the Unmerciful Servant, he invites us out of the cages unforgiveness keeps us in and into the freedom of forgiveness.
From Series: "You Had to Be There"
The way Jesus taught attracted every kind of person, from the ultra-religious to the irreligious. What was it about his teaching? We miss how provocative his parables were because we're not first century Galilean peasants. In this series, we ask what it would be like if Jesus came today. What would his stories sound like? Just how good is this good news? Trust us... you had to be there.

Everyone knows the world isn’t as it should be. There’s a sickness deep within us, a rot in the human heart. The Bible calls that rot Sin, and even though no one likes to talk about Sin, we can’t escape its reality. A snake once whispered to us that we could be like God. We believed that lie, and the venom of Sin has been killing us ever since.
