Should Christians Always Forgive One Another?

Forgiveness can be a loaded topic. It’s almost always tied to pain—either pain that we’ve caused or pain that we’ve experienced. This makes forgiveness difficult to process and difficult to act on. In this episode, Krystal and Shelby break down what biblical forgiveness is, why we are able to forgive even when it’s hard, and how to handle forgive difficult people. We pray that this episode reminds you of all that you’ve been forgiven of in Christ and encourages you to forgive others for big offenses and small ones.
