Our Purpose: Proclaim Forgiveness

Our purpose is to proclaim the forgiveness of sins in Jesus to all. We especially want to train people to overcome our resentments by asking forgiveness from our Lord when we hold on to our pain.

To help us forgive, we teach and practice the ABC’s that Jesus teaches us in Luke 6 and Matthew 18.

A is for ABSOLVE: (verse 37)... "forgive (absolve) one another and you will be forgiven (absolved)."

B is for BLESS: (verse 28)... "bless those who curse you" ...

C is for CONSTANTLY: (Matt 18:21-12) "how often?" "77 times" (constantly)


Forgivin Livin Is The Need We All Have In All Of Our Lives

Resentment is dividing our country. It divides our relationships. We need to practice forgiveness every day. This is the mission of Forgivin LIvin. It is at the heart of our podcasts, our books and other resources and events which we create to help people live by the power of the gospel and to forgive one another as we have been forgiven (Luke 23:24, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” Ephesians 4:32,…”forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave you.”)
