Faith Questions with Chris & Lanny

08. Why is Forgiveness so Hard?


Listen Later

There are days when we say, "I know I need to forgive and it's the right things to do" but stop just shy of forgiving. Why do we struggle with forgiveness? Why is forgiveness so hard?

In this episode, Chris and Lanny discuss the struggle between needing to forgive and wanting to forgive and the freedom which comes from letting things go.

Join us every other Tuesday as we explore, explain, and encourage each other by discovering what the Bible has to say about our deepest struggles in faith.

Tweetable quotes from the episode:

“We are not really human if we do not struggle with the idea of forgiveness.”- Lanny Smith

Pride is an obstacle; it stops that beautiful flow of grace that comes from God to me and then comes out from me to the people in my world. Because God has opened up his hands and released our sin and goes to the cross with Christ so there's satisfaction for the sin." -Lanny Smith
