[Sunday] Absolution - Forgiving Challenge

Jesus beautifully recreates Peter’s worst moment in order to show how Jesus is unafraid to enter into our worst moments, which gives us enough grace to cover even the worst parts of our stories.

[Sunday] Confession - Forgiving Challenge

Much like with Peter, Jesus invites all of us back into His presence through confession. But this practice simply shows Jesus positioning Himself to give us His grace, even if we don’t have the words to say how we feel.

[Sunday] Sin - Forgiving Challenge

Every single one of us misses the mark. As inventive, creative, and successful as humans can be in many aspects of life to overcome issues, the only way to overcome our sin is through Jesus.

[Sunday] S.C.A.R.S. - Forgiving Challenge

Today we look back at the time when a resurrected Jesus burst into the disciples’ room. One of the surprising elements of the glorified body of Jesus was that scars remained on His hands. What does this weird detail say about God, and us, as we think about forgiveness and freedom?

[Sunday] The Party - Titus Chapter 3

On one side you have an unhinged society, and on the other you have the strict law of compliance. But when it seems we are offered only those two realities, Paul reminds us that we are already at the party.

On one side you have an unhinged society, and on the other you have the strict law of compliance. But when it seems we are offered only those two realities, Paul reminds us that we are already at the party.

QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK:  The Party

  1. What do Christians often quarrel with those outside of the faith about?  What do christians quarrel with those inside of the faith about?  Why do you think they do that?

  2. Read Titus 3.   What advice does Paul give to us?  Why can christians be free to live gentle lives and avoid such quarrels?

  3. Titus is clear that we are to stand firm in the freedom of the death and resurrection of Jesus.  That Jesus alone has saved us.   How does this impact your walk with God and your neighbors around you?

Ghostbusters, Gozer, and Jesus


When I was a kid, a young kid, say five years old, my dad was approached by one of our neighbors, who wanted to know if everything was OK in our house. My dad was perplexed because, on our quiet cul-de-sac, everything was always OK. Nothing exciting ever happened and that was how the residents on the quiet cul-de-sac liked things………………………

Forgiving Challenge! New Series in September

Discover what real freedom is like as we explore the powerful forgiveness that Jesus offers to each and every person, including you!

Discover what real freedom is like as we explore the powerful forgiveness that Jesus offers to each and every person, including you!

Far more people struggle with reconciling their own mistakes than forgiving others. While we ought always to excel in being gracious to others, Forgiving Challenge is unique because it leads its readers on a personal journey to truly understand and receive God’s forgiveness. Also, we are invited to then live out of the forgiveness that Jesus has already won for us. A forgiven person is a forgiving person.
