When we face betrayal, forgiveness isn’t our automatic response. Feelings of anger, confusion, and deep pain seem natural and justified. But God is giving you a way to live a life of freedom instead of hostility. Join Pastor Craig Groeschel as we continue our series The Grudge, and discover the life change that comes from forgiving betrayal.

    We're not asking 'How much forgiveness do they deserve?' We're asking 'How much freedom do you desire?' Let it go

    Im just 13 and My whole life I have been ignoring god and I wasn't going to watch any sermons but after the first 10 minutes of this sermon its made me see how much love god has for us.
  • Prayers for my husband to forgive me and remember why he fell in love with me. Speaking the name of Jesus over him and our marriage.

    The gospel has made me a better person and continues to make me a better person. Eternally grateful for the message of the gospel and I pray to be able to always give the grace and forgiveness to others that He has given to me. 🙏

    Forgiveness is something I actually had to study. Cause at the time years ago I couldn't find myself forgiving. Now that I have it gives you real peace and that real feeling of grace.
  • Thank you so much for this sermon. I've been struggling greatly with intense hatred towards my ex who permanently destroyed my life. After watching this sermon, this is the closest I've come to forgiving her after almost 20 years of Christian counseling, watching thousands of sermons on the issue and reading. Thank you once again

  • @lizzymalkiah
    Very powerful sermon..am touched deeply as am going through a betrayal from someone I trusted and loved dearly..
  • Yes we are all sinners. Anyone who says they are not is a liar. God bless you all.
  • @lorianthony4892
    Thank you for this message. I believe I am forgiven by God. Please pray that I can forgive the 6 men who have raped me or molested me as a child. I struggle to forgive them but this message was very helpful. Thank you Pastor for being bold enough to preach this sermon. There are so many children molested in our world. Pray also for them.

    Forgiveness is so liberating!!!!! I love the intro video of the woman holding a hand full of sharp nails and the guy squeezing broken glass and the question, “Are you holding on to painful things?” It makes the point that grudges often hurt us more than the person that wounded us. Thanks for a great word!

    I’ wad dealing with This All my life. “HOLDING GRUDGES” And Now I Let All Go. Let God Be The Center In My Life Today and Forever. Amen.
