Over the Top

Posted on by
Have you ever seen one of those random acts of kindness that tend to trend online? Maybe someone gives a stranger an envelope full of cash or the keys to a free car. Maybe they pay off all their bills or cover their college tuition. While these moments of “over the top” generosity can be inspiring, they’re not things most of us will ever be in a position to give away. But if we can’t give away any brand new cars, what can we give that would make a difference in the world?
 
In this series, we’re going to look in the book of 1 Thessalonians and see the ways that we can love others through the things we CAN give. We’ll discover how to make a big difference by being generous with our time, being generous by sharing the good news, being generous by caring for each other, and being generous with our encouragement.

Forgiving What You Can’t Forget

Posted on by
This video Bible study with bestselling author and teacher Lysa TerKeurst (video streaming included) is for those of you who have been hurt by others, who feel stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain. Forgiveness is a major part of the Christian faith. We know God commands us to forgive each other. But, apart from simply saying the words, “I forgive you,” many of us have unasked questions about it:
 
·         How does it work? On our minds, souls, circumstances—what’s actually happening when we forgive?
·         Why is it so important, and what’s the difference between forgiveness and simply moving on?
·         When should I forgive, and are their exceptions?
·         How can I find healing for myself, even if my act of forgiveness doesn’t seem to change the person who hurt me?
