💭 God's Forgiveness Is Given and Required... 💭

This weekend Pastor Bob shared a powerful message about one of the hardest commands Jesus gives us: forgiving others the way God has forgiven us.

Here's the reality check: We've been forgiven a debt of $16.8 BILLION (seriously—that's the modern equivalent Jesus used in His parable). Yet we struggle to forgive someone who owes us $32,000 worth of hurt.

The math doesn't add up. But more importantly—unforgiveness doesn't just hurt them. It destroys US.

As Bob said: "Unforgiveness is based solely on pride and selfishness. When we hold onto it, we become like a dead shrub in an empty land—isolated, lonely, and blind to all the good things God places around us."

Shalom, Shalom! This Sunday, we explore the profound promise of peace that Jesus offers us, especially during the Christmas season. In a world filled with anxiety and uncertainty, how do we truly experience the "shalom, shalom" – the perfect peace that surpasses all understanding?

🌟 Cristian-ish: Faith that puts God Second 🌟

Hey Joy Church family and friends! 🙌

Today’s sermon was a powerful reminder about priorities and where God fits into our lives. We explored the idea of having a faith that truly puts God first, above all else. It’s easy to say God is our top priority, but do our lives reflect that?

🌟 Sermon Reflection: Are You Christian-ish? 🌟

Hey everyone! This past Sunday, we dove into a thought-provoking sermon on the concept of being "Christian-ish." It challenged us to examine our faith and ask ourselves if we're truly living for Christ or just going through the motions. 🤔

Good morning, Joy Church family! Today, we dive into the incredible story of Ruth and how it beautifully illustrates the themes of faith, grace, and hope. 🙏✨

Ruth's journey from Moab to Bethlehem, her unwavering faith in God, and the grace she received from Boaz remind us of the transformative power of God's love. Just like Ruth, we are invited to live by faith, embrace God's grace, and hold onto the hope that Jesus brings into our lives.
