And when he had begun to settle them, one who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him. But since he did not have the means to repay, his master commanded that he be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he had, and repayment be made. So the slave fell to the ground and prostrated himself before him, saying, ‘Have patience with me and I will repay you everything.’ And the master of that slave felt compassion, and he released him and forgave him the debt. But that slave went out and found one of his fellow slaves who owed him a hundred denarii; and he seized him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe!’

We are going to look at another gift inside of grace by looking at what Jesus says about love and hate. Jesus says to love your neighbor, but to also love your enemies. This plan will take you through what Jesus says about forgiveness, and how, as children of God, we can choose to love and forgive those who have wounded us.
One of the good news of the Gospel is that our life can change, no matter how it began. Your identity is not defined by your past. Jesus comes to your rescue, you can get back on the road, keep walking in the valley of the shadow of death and get out of it.
Forgiveness is hard, but expected. Jesus spoke about it often in the Parables. In this reading plan, we will look at Parables spoken by Jesus and recorded in the Gospels about forgiveness and living in love with the people around us. It is possible.
How do you respond when someone upsets you? Do you get angry? Are you sad? Do you sneak into their house at night and spread Legos all over their floor? Join in as we explore what Jesus calls us to do with our grudges (Spoiler alert: we are called to forgive!).
