The Grudge – Part 1: The Tension

Why is forgiveness so hard, especially when it is an expected part of what it means to be a believer in God? How do we understand and navigate forgiveness when we’ve been deeply hurt? Matthew 6:14-15; 18:21

Part 6: Love

Similar to God’s goodness, love is another attribute that when misunderstood, creates a one-dimensional caricature that misrepresents the very heart of God. Exodus 34:5-7; John 3:16-17; 1 Corinthians 13:1-3; 1 John 4:8

Part 5: Good

The goodness of God in modern culture is either the most embraced or the most refected. How do we understand God as good in a world where suffering and evil exists? Exodus 33:19; Psalm 145:5-9; Romans 12:21;1 Thess. 5:15

Part 4: Holy

One characteristic that sets God apart from his creation is holiness. It is also a characteristic that becomes an important part of our faith journey as we grow in our relationship with God. Isaiah 6:1-7; Leviticus 20:26; Matthew 5:48; 1 Thess 4:7; 1 Peter 1:16
