When You've Messed Up Your Life

Building on last week's message about Jesus' teachings on forgiveness, we've seen the challenge of forgiving others, even when it seems beyond our ability. However, there's someone else we often find even harder to forgive—ourselves. Join Pastor Wolfgang as he explores the transformative exchange between Jesus and the thief crucified beside Him. Discover how Jesus' response urges us to move our focus from our past mistakes to His sacrifice and love. How much would you give for a clean conscience? Jesus has already given everything for you. No sin is too great to be out of reach of God's grace. Learn how accepting this truth can bring the healing power of forgiveness into your life and enable you to live in the freedom that Jesus has bought for you.
