Forgiving Your Enemies is Good for Your Soul

Common things like nature, travel, and even ice cream can bring us an appreciation for God and spiritual rest. They are good for the soul. But as crazy as it might sound, could an uncommon, seemingly impossible command from Jesus to love our enemies be the same? It just so happens that Jesus’ teaching on loving our enemies wasn’t just a command, it was also an invitation to experience personal well-being.

The Way of Wandering

Have you ever found yourself wandering in the wilderness before? Maybe you’ve never physically wandered around in the wilderness before, but maybe you find yourself wandering in the wilderness of life. When we wander in the wilderness, God equips us with a promise and a purpose. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

Talking About My Revelation

God gave life-changing revelation to the Israelites as he set them free from bondage in Egypt, and there is a lifelong set of God-given revelations that Jesus has for you as He leads you on an Exodus out of your old life. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

Faith works

Saying yes to Jesus and helping others do the same can lead to purposeful and life-giving journeys of faith. But many of us struggle to talk about our faith or struggle to share our faith well. One of Jesus’ first disciples learned the key to sharing faith in powerful ways even in the face of opposition. And we can put that into practice for ourselves.

The Most important Question

Why am I here? Who is my soulmate? How can I be successful? These are all valuable questions. But all of them focus on us doing the asking.

What if the best possible offer of change was different than anything we ever knew? How could we overcome the fear of the unknown to receive a better life in the future and certain joy right now?
