What does true greatness look like in God’s Kingdom? When someone sins against you, do you talk to them… or talk about them? How many times should you forgive your brother or sister? Jesus gives clear teaching on confrontation, restoration, and unlimited forgiveness that can transform every relationship in your life.
If you’ve ever struggled with bitterness, wondered how to handle conflict biblically, or wrestled with whether forgiveness means restoring every relationship, this episode will challenge and encourage you. Jesus doesn’t just tell us what to do—He shows us why it matters and how His own forgiveness changes everything.
