February 15

Greetings,

We had an excellent meeting and discussion on "forgiveness" Wednesday night! Everyone participated in sharing and discussion and the Spirit came as we prayed for those who needed help with forgiveness issues and relationship issues. It was a powerful and joyful time.

Next week, Feb 15th, we'll meet at the Bell's home at 6:30 pm, and continue our study and discussion about forgiveness.

Please consider bringing one (or 2 or 3) Scripture on forgiveness that's been meaningful to you, and you can share "why" if you wish. Also bring a story of forgiveness in your life or realm, how it happened, and the results, if you want to.

We'll probably center our discussion following around this question Peter asked Jesus, and the parable Jesus gave us following that question.

Come expecting insights, and help with forgiveness if you are in need of forgiving or being forgiven. :)


  “Then Peter came and said to Him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”” (Matthew 18:21)


“For this reason the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his slaves.” (Matthew 18:23)

Check out this article Chad found on the subject... very excellent and thought provoking.
