Choosing Forgiveness 

Ephesians 4:32

(Ephesians 4:32) And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Why Should We Forgive?

In the parable of the unforgiving servant, Jesus gives three illustrations, three reasons why we ought to forgive. He says I need to learn to forgive other people when they hurt us...

I. Because God Has Forgiven Me

II. Because Bitterness Destroys

III. Because I Need Forgiveness

How Do We Forgive?

I. Recognize We're All Imperfect

II. Relinquish Our Rights

III. Respond to the Evil with Good

IV. Refocus on God's Plan
