Cultivating Healthy Relationships

(LM-11)

“How do unresolved hurt/anger/bitterness impact our lives and relationships? Why is it so difficult to forgive others?” 1


“Forgiveness is critical to our spiritual and emotional health and essential for healthy relationships. As we grow toward Christ-centered maturity, forgiving others because Christ forgave us results in spiritual freedom and enlarged fruitfulness.“

— Kenneth Horton

“Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.”

— Ephesians 4:32
