January 4, 2026: Forgiveness: The Key to Your Own Prison

Text: Matthew 18:15-35

Forgiveness can be very difficult and something we may not want to do, yet Scripture presents it as a central mark of life in Christ. In this Sunday’s sermon passage, we will consider Jesus’ parable of the unforgiving servant and examine how withholding forgiveness places us in a prison of our own making, while releasing others entrusts justice to God. Nestled within this warning is a gracious invitation: those who have been forgiven much are called to walk in the freedom Christ has secured for them.
