This week, Elissa Bjeletich and Kristina Wenger consider the unmerciful servant and the lesson he learned about how only a forgiving heart can receive forgiveness.

Join us as Houston Bynum delivers class titled, "The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant."

What do you do when forgiveness feels like betrayal? In this powerful message, Ben tackles one of Jesus' most uncomfortable teachings: radical, no-limits forgiveness—even when the wounds are deep. Using the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant, we wrestle with justice, pain, anger, and whether forgiving someone means letting them off the hook. The answer? Forgiveness isn't about forgetting or excusing—it's about trusting God to settle accounts so we can finally walk in freedom. If you're tired of the bitterness cycle, this might be your turning point.

This was Dave Richards looking at Matthew 18: 21-35 from our 7pm service on Sunday 10 November 2024. This is part of our series looking at the "Stories of the Kingdom".

Jesus was a master storyteller. Through the use of parables, He could reveal His true nature and communicate important spiritual truths. The stories His followers recorded hold our attention, stir our emotions, and help us remember His teachings. The most popular are recognized by those outside the faith (e.g., the Good Samaritan) and the teachings they contain continue to challenge Jesus's followers today. In Storyteller, we will look at some of the lesser-known parables to uncover what Jesus was telling His first followers about the Kingdom of God that we are still trying to understand today.Pastor Jim Mueller joined Jill Devine this week to talk about the lesser known parables he preached on during our Storyteller series; The Fig Tree and The Unmerciful Servant.Normal Goes A Long Way Website: https://www.normalgoesalongway.com/Normal Goes A Long Way Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/normalgoesalongway/Normal Goes A Long Way Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Normal-Goes-A-Long-Way-110089491250735Normal Goes A Long Way is brought to you by Messiah St. Charles: https://messiahstcharles.org/Seeking The Still: https://seekingthestill.com/Two Kids and A Career: https://www.jilldevine.com/podcastNormal Goes A Long Way is hosted on Zencastr.

The Parables: The Unmerciful Servant by Real Life

Sermon from 09-22-2024

Matthew 18:23-34

In Matthew 18:21-35 we hear the parable of The Unmerciful Servant. This parable asks how we will live in the light of God's grace. Will we extend the same grace and forgiveness that we have received, or will we hold onto our hurt vengeance and grudges 

What does it truly mean to forgive? This episode explores the parable of the unmerciful servant from Matthew 18, using relatable experiences with financial debt as a metaphor for sin and forgiveness. True forgiveness involves releasing someone from the obligation to repay a debt, often requiring us to absorb the cost of the wrong done. The parable challenges us to reflect on our own attitudes towards forgiveness and urges us to embody the limitless forgiveness exemplified by God's grace. Forgiveness emerges as a continual, transformative process that can reshape our relationships and inner lives. Listen now and be inspired to embrace the challenging yet liberating practice of forgiveness in your own life!

Pastor Jim speaks on the concept of debt and forgiveness in the kingdom of God, as illustrated in a parable from Matthew 18. The focus is on the importance of extraordinary mercy and forgiveness, drawing parallels between the debts owed due to sin and the forgiveness granted by God through Jesus. Jim emphasizes sin as idolatry, the cost it incurs, and the immense debt owed to God. The parable of the king forgiving a massive debt is used to illustrate God's forgiveness of humanity's sins. The message highlights God's compassion and grace, encouraging listeners to understand and accept God's forgiveness in order to extend it to others. Pastor Jim underscores the transformative power of preemptive forgiveness and the daily practice of living in God's mercy, urging followers of Jesus to embrace forgiveness, compassion, and humility.

This week, our guest speaker Sam Castro looks at the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant to explore how we can walk the path of forgiveness and healing.

Jesus used parables to explain spiritual truth. A parable is an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. In the parable of the unmerciful servant, Jesus shares a story to example the importance of forgiveness. 

What does it mean to embrace forgiveness? In the parable of the Unmerciful Servant, Jesus vividly describes the Kingdom of Heaven as a realm where mercy and grace reign supreme. Receiving forgiveness and extending forgiveness are essential for the Christian life. Passage Matthew 18:23-35

We are to forgive others when they sin against us. Forgiven people forgive people.

This week, Pastor Brandon wraps up our series "The Parables of Jesus", as he talks about the "Unmerciful Servant". Pastor Brandon asks us to look at what it means to forgive and to be forgiven.Support the Show.

In Matthew 18 Jesus shares one of the most terrifying truths of all Scripture. After describing a servant who is sent to prison for all eternity, Jesus says: "So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”You cannot escape this life without experiencing hurt in relationships. How will we find the strength to forgive those who have caused us pain?Listen as Pastor Kevin unpacks the "Parable of the Unmerciful Servant" - to point us to the One who can strengthen us to forgive, by what He has done for us.

Jesus told a story about a servant who was released from owing a huge debt. When we really dig into it with Pastor Tim, we find that forgiveness is one of the most difficult and yet most important practices for Christians. It's a hard topic, but let's allow our hearts to be open to the Lord as we listen.
