Forgiveness is good for our health and happiness. We may not feel like forgiving, but God calls us to embody pardon and mercy in imitation of the divine forgiveness we have received. Learn the dynamics of forgiveness and how it can bring healing to your personal life, your family, and our church.
Suffering seems to bring out the best and the worst in our human nature. The people of the passion in this book are the characters who participated in some dramatic way in the suffering and death of Jesus. Well-known characters include Peter, Pilate, and Mary Magdalen; lesson-known include Simon of Cyrene, the daughters of Jerusalem, and the woman who anointed Jesus.
Proclaiming the peace of God's kingdom, Jesus tells his disciples to renounce hostile retaliation, learning to love enemies and struggle for justice with creative nonviolence. Learn to read the prophets, the gospels, and letters of Paul and Peter through the lens of the cross, becoming a Christian peacemaker.
