Simply By Grace Podcast

C.S. Lewis said that "To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you."

What did he mean by this exactly? Why is forgiveness so important? Why is it necessary to do?  

In this podcast, Charlie teaches us how to become a person of grace through forgiveness. The focus of this podcast is the grace to forgive with a focus on Matthew chapter 18. 

One of the key elements in becoming a person of grace is understanding and practicing the importance of forgiveness. Forgiveness is undoubtedly one of the hardest things that God asks us to do. It has been called an unnatural act because seeking revenge and retaliation is much easier than allowing forgiveness to take root. Our natural bent is to seek revenge and it's also what the world teaches. However, revenge or retaliation in any form, never resolves the issue.  

The Bible however, teaches the opposite. To become a person of Grace you must understand and practice forgiveness.
