Waiting on the World to Change 

Big Idea: God is gracious to people whether we feel they deserve it or not.

Part 3 of 3 from May 29, 2022 by Ben Russell (@neighborhoodpastor93)


QUESTIONS:

  • How does Jesus’ word on forgiveness (Matthew 18:21-22) sit with you?
  • Who are the people who don’t deserve a second chance in your life?
  • Is our lack of Gospel witness actually driven by a lack of compassion toward others?
  • Do you find it hard to extend grace/mercy to an enemy? 
  • When we see people far from God, doing evil, are we driven to anger or pity?
  • Do we understand that when we fall short of His glory God is not angry but compassionate?

  • ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:

    • Read Jonah 3-4 
    • We must extend radical forgiveness (Matthew 18:21-22
    • Peace with God leads to peace among people (Colossians 3:12-15
    • Jesus forgives independent of worthiness (Luke 23:39-43)
    • God wants to forgive (2 Peter 3:9
