Episode Details

Tuesday, July 16: Now it’s that time on The Daily Grind to enrich your faith. In our latest episode, we continue our journey of exploring what it means to live a life shaped by the cross. Today, we're looking into the discipline of forgiveness as part of our series on the practices of a disciple. We delve into Jesus’ teachings from Luke 7:36-50, where a sinful woman’s act of deep remorse and humility sets the stage for a powerful lesson in forgiveness. Discover how forgiveness is essential in being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and doing what Jesus did. In this episode we will:

• Reflect on being with Jesus and avoiding "Vampire Christianity," as warned by Dallas Willard.
• Understand forgiveness as restoring relationships, not just breaking rules, as highlighted by Eugene Peterson.
• Embrace the ongoing practice of forgiveness to open up new futures, inspired by Philip Yancey’s insights.

Let forgiveness transform your life, deepen your love for God and others, and live a life marked by compassion, humility, and love.
