I’ve had occasion to think about forgiveness lately. Luke 17:3 reads as follows: Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

Church Shooter Stopped by F150 and Security Team
A 31-year-old man drove recklessly into a church parking lot this last weekend.

John 4:24
“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” This is a commonly quoted passage, but what constitutes worshiping in spirit and truth? I think it means to worship not ceremonially, and not necessarily in a particular place (though we also need to worship together as Christians). […]
