#354 - When Forgiving Seems Impossible

About this episode

This episode explores how to forgive those who have deeply hurt us, using the book of Philemon as a guide.

Who in your life has hurt you so badly that a part of you died? I’m talking about that person who spoke too much or showed up too little, neglected too much or lashed out too often—someone who took advantage of you, or betrayed you, or abused you. How do you forgive that person? In this episode of Live the Bible, we look in the book of Philemon to learn how to truly let go and move on when forgiveness seems impossible. I urge you to listen now. Support the show
