Episode Synopsis

FORgive to Move FORward | Compassion Church SermonWelcome to Compassion Church! This week, Pastor Willie from LifePoint Church brings a powerful word that will challenge your heart and change your perspective.Have you ever struggled to forgive someone who deeply hurt you?You’re not alone, and Jesus knew we would wrestle with this. That’s why He didn’t just talk about forgiveness… He commanded it.In Matthew 6 and Matthew 18, we see that forgiveness isn’t optional, it’s essential. And even though it feels uncomfortable and unfair, it’s the very thing that unlocks our freedom.In this message, “FORgive to Move FORward,” we explore: • Why Jesus’ words carry the full weight of Heaven • What makes forgiveness feel impossible, and how to do it anyway • The difference between forgiveness and reconciliation • How gratitude shifts our lens and weakens bitterness • The parable of the unforgiving servant, and what it reveals about our heartsYou’ll be encouraged, challenged, and maybe even a little uncomfortable, but that’s what transformation looks like. If Jesus said it, you can trust it. Obeying Him isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it.Don’t let bitterness hold you back.You were forgiven much, now it’s time to walk in that same grace.Drop a comment with what stood out to you from today’s message.Subscribe for more weekly sermons, devotionals, and encouragement!
