Drop the Bench
October 28, 2026
Ephesians 4:31-32 tells us to get rid of all bitterness and malice, not just the big offenses. Unforgiveness is like being leashed to a concrete bench: it drags behind us, damaging every relationship in its path while the person who hurt us goes on with life. Because God forgave us completely in Christ, we can untie the leash, hand Him the justice, and walk away lighter.

We don’t need impressive credentials or all the answers to share our faith; we simply need to spend time with Jesus, allow Him to transform us, and boldly point others to the hope and salvation found in Him alone.
