Church community is strengthening connections in faith with each other. Our Spirit filled love for each other will encourage each other. The world will see Christ in us.
Jesus links our peace, and our faith, to forgiving others. In the parable of the unforgiving debtor, an unpayable debt is canceled, yet mercy is refused to another. Having received limitless grace, we are called to forgive from the heart. Forgiveness doesn’t ignore boundaries, but it releases bitterness and reflects Christ’s mercy. Only then do we walk in true peace.
