Podcasts about bitterness

Pastor Kelly Soiles teaches that forgiveness is a courageous, ongoing practice empowered by Jesus, beginning with honestly naming the hurt and handing it to God. She reminds us that forgiveness leads to freedom and quiet joy as we trust Christ more than revenge.

12:15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

In this week's sermon, I explore why unforgiveness keeps us spiritually stuck - and how Jesus calls us to radical mercy in Matthew 18:21-35. We look honestly at broken relationships, bitterness, and resentment, and we ask: how do I actually forgive someone who hurt me?

Tom Logue - October 26th 2025 In Jesus' family, loving discipline restores straying sheep and protects the flock. This week, Tom continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 18:15–20, walking through Jesus' four-step process for church discipline within His church (ekklesia). He contrasts biblical friendship (top-shelf friends who love you enough to help you fight sin) with worldly friendship, warns how bitterness is poison, and explains what Jesus means by “binding and loosing” and “where two or three are gathered” in the context of restoring a brother or sister. The goal is never punishment—it's repentance, reconciliation, and restoration.

“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” — Jesus. Imagine finding out family secrets that wrecked your world and left you feeling betrayed and abandoned. How do we move past that and forgive? Jenny's guest, Author and Pastor Micah Davis shares his personal story and a pathway of healing. He says unforgiveness leads us to a “Prison of Unforgiveness” that we put ourselves in and ironically, we have the keys to unlock the prison door and let ourselves out!  He shows us that the other side of our failures and hurts is forgiveness and true freedom. And reminds us, the way of Jesus is forgiveness. He shares the beauty of forgiveness and why it's essential to healing relationships with ourselves, others, and God. Micah is a Pastor of Teaching & Vision at The Sanctuary in Illinois & author of his latest book: “Three Strikes You're Forgiven:: Encounter a God Who Wants to Redeem Your Past, Restore Your Present, and Transform Your Future.” He invites us to let go of our restless pursuit of perfection and to find rest in Christ. You can find Micah on social media, at micahdavis.com, and on YouTube.

On this episode of The C-Suite for Christ Podcast, we're going to war with the world's favorite sin: unforgiveness. Look around. Our culture is drowning in outrage. Revenge is entertainment. Bitterness is sold as strength. But the cross declares a different kind of power: forgiveness.This episode isn't about cheap grace or easy platitudes. It's a full-frontal assault on the unforgiveness that has poisoned the Church and paralyzed its witness. We're diving deep into the radical, non-negotiable command of Christ to forgive as we have been forgiven.From Erica Kirk's world-stopping forgiveness of her husband's killer to Tim Allen's 60-year battle with bitterness, we'll see what happens when believers choose obedience over offense. The world says get even. Jesus says get holy. Which will you choose?Buckle up. This one is raw, real, and rooted in the radical mercy of the cross."Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." – Colossians 3:13Episode Highlights:05:32 - Forgiveness isn't weakness, it's warfare. When you forgive, you tear down strongholds. You silence Satan's accusations. You declare that the blood of Jesus is stronger than the offense that wounded you. That's why unforgiveness is one of Satan's favorite weapons. It keeps believers bitter, divided, and totally powerless.16:24 - Many churches don't talk about forgiveness anymore. It's not trendy, it doesn't sell... The modern world tells you to cancel your enemies. Christ tells you to bless them. The world says, destroy your opponent. Christ says, pray for them. The world says, get even. Christ says, get holy. Forgiveness is hard because it's holy.37:23 - One of the biggest misunderstandings about forgiveness is that it equals reconciliation. It does not. Reconciliation takes two repentant hearts. Forgiveness only takes one obedient one. You can forgive and still set boundaries. You can forgive and still walk away. Forgiveness is about your heart, not their reaction.Connect with Paul M.

Pastor Gerrit begins the study of 2 Samuel, tracing the continuation of God's unfolding plan for His people through David's rise to leadership. With Saul's death and David's ascension to the throne, the passage reveals David's remarkable response, not of celebration, but of mourning and honor toward Saul and Jonathan. Pastor Gerrit reflects on how David avoided bitterness by trusting God's sovereignty, showing radical patience, and refusing to speak evil of those who wronged him. The message encourages believers to guard their hearts from resentment and to trust that God's purposes prevail even through hardship.

Wrecked. YET. Renewed. - "Wrecked by Bitterness" - Genesis 37:3-8, 18, 23-28; 42:21, 45:1-8 The story of Joseph and his brothers shows what happens when bitterness rules a family—and what redemption looks like when God steps in. From jealousy and betrayal to forgiveness and restoration, Joseph's journey reminds us that even when our family history feels wrecked, God can renew it. Your past doesn't have to define your future. In Christ, bitterness can stop with you—and forgiveness can begin.

This sermon, rooted in Hebrews 12, confronts the pervasive and deceptive sin of bitterness, emphasizing that it arises from a failure to embrace God's grace and a self-focused response to injustice. Drawing on the powerful example of Erica Kirk's forgiveness after her husband's assassination, the preacher illustrates how faith in Christ's example—enduring hostility, forgiving enemies, and trusting God's ultimate justice—enables believers to overcome bitterness through grace, not vengeance. The passage warns of the destructive, contagious nature of bitterness, likening it to a root that defiles many, and contrasts it with the life of Christ, who endured the cross for the joy set before Him. Practical steps include seeking God's perspective, reflecting on Joseph's story, destroying mental lists of grievances, and actively choosing not to dwell on wrongs, all grounded in the truth that God's grace is sufficient and His justice perfect. Ultimately, the sermon calls believers to live by faith, availing themselves of divine grace, trusting God to avenge, and embodying Christ's love by forgiving as they have been forgiven, thereby conquering bitterness and glorifying God.

Life can be rough. Bad things happen. It's easy to take those bad things and walk down the road of bitterness where our relationships with friends and family suffer. In this message, Jill tells us how Naomi's experiences made her an empty, bitter woman, but she got back on track with the help of her daughter-in-law Ruth and became a full, better woman.

Pastor Greg Mitchell preaches from Ruth 1:18–21 on a common but hidden battle: anger at God. Naomi returns to Bethlehem and says, “Call me Mara,” revealing a heart wounded by mystery, loss, and unmet expectations. This message names the roots of bitterness, traces its consequences, and shows a biblical path to healing: repentance (Job 42), surrender of expectations (1 Kgs 19), honest prayer (Psalms; Matt 11), and trust (Ps 43; 1 Pet 5:7). Watch to learn how God turns “Mara” back to “Naomi,” and how providence leads from gleaning to Boaz to the lineage of Christ.Scriptures: Ruth 1–2; Ps 73; Deut 29:29; Prov 19:3; Mal 3:9; 2 Sam 6; Job 42:3,6; 1 Kgs 19; Matt 11:2–6; Ps 43:3–4; 1 Pet 5:7.https://TakingTheLandPodcast.comSUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM FOR MORE:• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3/month on Supercast⁠: https://taking-the-land.supercast.com/⁠• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3.99/month on Spotify⁠: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taking-the-land/subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• ⁠Subscribe for only $4.99/month on Apple Podcasts⁠: https://apple.co/3vy1s5b⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chapters00:00 The Prepared Room for God12:10 Shooting at God: Understanding Anger and Expectations34:01 Understanding Cessationism and Its Impact37:16 The Emotional Toll of Anger at God40:20 Healing Anger Towards God53:01 God's Unseen Work in Our Lives57:31 The Power of Honest Communication with GodShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

We want God to come through, but on our terms. We demand ease, favor, instant breakthrough, and validation, and when those expectations aren't met, we call it a trial. But what if the real trial is our refusal to lay down our entitlement? This week on Win Today, bestselling author Gary Thomas pulls no punches. He exposes the modern lie that faith means personal fulfillment, that comfort means favor, and that hardship means failure. And he shows how distraction is more than a bad habit—it's a spiritual breakdown. Because when the soul loses its focus, bitterness, offense, and relational dysfunction are not far behind. If you've ever felt spiritually entitled, subtly bitter, or confused about why you're still offended by things you “moved past,” this conversation is for you.

Bitterness left unchecked doesn't just poison a person—it seeps into families, generations, and even churches. In this episode, we explore how generational bitterness takes root, how it shows up in family dynamics, and—most importantly—how Jesus breaks the cycle. Drawing from key passages, Dr. Joseph Mattera unpacks the spiritual consequences of unresolved offense and the power of the cross to release healing across bloodlines. Whether you've inherited a legacy of resentment or are simply tired of emotional patterns you can't explain, this episode is a call to freedom, forgiveness, and generational healing. If you've ever said, “I don't want to become like them,” but feel stuck in the same story—this message is for you.

The sermon centers on the transformative power of Christ-centered living, emphasizing that true Christian maturity is marked by a surrendered spirit, not merely moral behavior. It highlights four essential truths—position, condition, control, and priority—illustrating how believers are spiritually positioned in Christ, yet must actively choose to live under His control rather than their own. Through vivid metaphors and scriptural analysis, the message underscores that God's will for believers includes suffering for righteousness, and that enduring such trials with patience and trust glorifies God. The core of the teaching is the necessity of forgiveness and the devastating consequences of bitterness, which the sermon identifies as a root cause of emotional, physical, and spiritual breakdown, drawing from passages like Ephesians 4 and Hebrews 12 to call for radical repentance and the release of resentment. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a reorientation of life around God's priorities, where trust in His sovereignty and grace replaces self-reliance and resentment.

On this episode, we dive into the controversial sentencing of Sean “Diddy” Combs—50 months behind bars for prostitution charges that don't match the time he received. We break down how he's being punished for allegations he was already acquitted of, and how the system is weaponizing public perception, power, and payback—especially after his lawsuit against the liquor industry. It's hard to sympathize with him as a man, but the legal injustice is undeniable.From there, we get into the ugly online feud between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B—two grown women dragging each other's children into the beef. We talk about how the industry used to keep kids out of it, and why this new era of low blows is disgusting.We also touch on the heartbreaking case of Trey, the young man found hanging at State University. The autopsy confirms he was beaten and strangled before being hung, disproving the lazy and insulting “suicide” claim.Then we look at ICE raids in Chicago, where helicopters and officers terrorized Black neighborhoods late at night, dragging families into the streets over warrants—another example of Trump-era policies resurfacing.On a lighter note, we lighten the mood with a conversation about sex and emotions—how good sex can create feelings that shouldn't exist, how emotionless sex can be toxic, and how negativity during intimacy can ruin the experience.We close with new music drops from Doja Cat, Blxst, and Leon Thomas—and a confession: Parker McKenna is officially my new celebrity crush. She's grown, fine, and grown again. I don't feel bad no more.Plus, the live chat was lit with audience takes all night. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Brian Wilfong - Grace Instead of Bitterness

Kyle Kauffman | Oct 5 2025 Ruth 1:1–5 introduces us to Naomi's story—a woman whose life is marked by bitter suffering. She faces famine, becomes a refugee in a foreign land, and then endures the unimaginable grief of losing her husband and both sons. Her pain is real, raw, and relatable. Like Naomi, many of us know what it feels like to walk through seasons of sorrow and loss. And those seasons of suffering are often marked by more questions than answers as we struggle to understand why God is allowing us to face this suffering. This passage also teaches us that our response to suffering is never neat or predictable. Grief is messy. Some wounds linger for a lifetime, and that's okay. It's right and good to mourn, to lament, and to be honest about our pain. At the same time, we can cling to hope. We can grieve deeply and still trust in God's presence and purpose. Naomi's story, though filled with loss, is not without hope—and neither is ours. Our most bitter chapters are never the final word, because we serve a God who restores, redeems, and walks with us every step of the way.

Stefan Molyneux examines the intricacies of forgiveness, highlighting the tension between the need to forgive and the risks of remaining bitter. Stefan critiques the idea of unconditional forgiveness, emphasizing that it should follow accountability, including apologies and a commitment to change. He explores the dynamics of personal relationships, stresses the importance of maintaining standards, and discusses how societal pressures can complicate moral responsibilities. Using metaphors, Stefan illustrates the emotional impact of unacknowledged wrongs and describes how waiting for an apology can lead to toxic relationships. Ultimately, he calls for a nuanced understanding of forgiveness that prioritizes accountability and rejects oversimplified moral frameworks.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

The podcast kicks off with a recap of Catholic Guy Con 4 in Nashville. After that, a pastor has a real problem with the Greek language. Then, Tyler asks Lino if he'll ever pierce his ear. And the podcast wraps up with Bitterness Barometer!

We say we want transformation, but often we create environments that protect people from pain instead of preparing them for growth. In the process, we enable spiritual stagnation, emotional fragility, and shallow discipleship. This week on Win Today, Katie Davis Majors exposes the hidden dangers of well-meaning empathy, the false security of “safe spaces,” and the clichés that erode authentic faith. In this conversation, we'll also tackle how to live faithfully in the tension between what God has promised and what we see right now. If you've ever found yourself numbing pain instead of processing it, or if you've settled for comfort instead of maturity, this conversation will challenge you to grow, even when it costs you.

Genesis 27:46--28:8

Life as a parent (and just as a human) can hand you plenty of reasons to grow bitter — disappointments, unanswered prayers, hurt from others. In this conversation, Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie talk honestly about how bitterness creeps in and why it's so dangerous for our hearts, families, and churches. They share personal stories, unpack what the Bible says about forgiving like Jesus, and offer practical ways to choose joy over resentment. If you've been carrying around some spiritual “junk mail” marked bitterness, this episode is an invitation to throw it out for good.Resources Mentioned:Good News for Parents by Adam GriffinHebrews 12:15Ephesians 4:31–32Colossians 3:13Matthew 18:21–35 Follow Us:Instagram | Facebook | WebsiteEditing and support by The Good Podcast Co.
