by: Lisa Robertson Our latest book, Desperate Forgiveness, includes a chapter that has the title “Big Sins, Big Forgiveness.” I guess that this is a provocative title because someone might think that we are saying that the more we sin, the more forgiveness God bestows on us. In a sense, that is true.  We can’t do something so evil – so despicable that God’s mercy isn’t big enough to cover it.  And I’m glad of that. However, when we come face to face with our sin, AND we understand that it has broken all bonds between us and our Father...

by: Jason Jenkins At about year 12 of marriage I thought the marriage was over and a lot of me hoped it was over.  I hated her, I hated us, but I really hated me.  I hated what we had become.

“Pastor, you are telling me that the only way I can be healed of this horrible pain is to forgive the man who did this to me?”Forgiving others does go against the grain of our nature. We seem to be hardwired for revenge - for justice. It’s the theme of most Hollywood action thrillers. Bad person gets paid back - audience applauds.But in real life, unforgiveness seldom pays dividends. Not good ones anyway. It lurks in the darkest places in our hearts and sucks the joy out of life.
