God's Acre On the Go: Pardon the Forgiveness
Manage episode 464535348 series 3477293
Forgiveness is at the very heart of the Christian faith, yet it is often one of the hardest things for us to practice. In this episode, we explore the powerful story of the woman who anoints Jesus as told in Luke 7:36-50, an act of love and gratitude that unsettled the religious leaders around her. Why is it that we can so readily accept God’s grace for ourselves, yet struggle to extend it to others?
We’ll reflect on the depth of Jesus’ teaching on forgiveness—how it frees us, heals relationships, and transforms lives. We’ll also examine why some people resist forgiveness and how understanding our own need for grace can help us become more merciful toward others. Finally, this episode offers a moment of reflection—a space to truly accept the forgiveness Christ offers and, in turn, extend it to those who have wronged us.
If you’ve ever wrestled with forgiving someone—or with believing you yourself are forgiven—this episode is for you. Let’s step into the radical grace of Jesus together.
