Making, Maturing, and Multiplying Disciples

Through Philemon 17-20, we were reminded that the gospel is a message of grace that covers every debt. Because Christ has paid our debt in full, believers are called to extend that same grace to others by receiving those who have wronged us, pursuing reconciliation, respecting the cost of forgiveness, remembering the debt Christ forgave us, and rejoicing in the Lord. As we reflected on God's amazing forgiveness, we were challenged with this truth: if we want to live in the joy of God's forgiveness, we must be willing to forgive others.
