Kingdom Standards: Forgiveness
Aug 30, 2026 • Pastor Glenn Howell
What does it look like to live under the rule of King Jesus? In Matthew 18, Jesus gives us a Kingdom standard that can be hard to live out--but impossible to ignore: FORGIVENESS.
When relationships get messy, offenses happen, and wounds run deep, how should citizens of Christ's Kingdom respond?
This Sunday we will discover three Kingdom truths:
1. Pursue Reconciliation (v15-20) - Don't run from conflict. Pursue restoration.
2. Practice Forgiveness (v21-22) - Forgiveness isn't about keeping score. It's about extending the grace we've received.
3. Remember Your Forgiveness (v23-35) - When we remember how much we have been forgiven, it changes how we forgive others.
Christ has forgiven us--so how should His forgiveness change the way we live?
