Discover the 5 Phases Leading to Freedom
Phase 1: Sin
Experiencing freedom starts by acknowledging that we have all missed the mark.
Phase 2: Confession
It’s what we do after sin that determines whether we experience freedom. God invites us to bring our sin to Him.
Phase 3: Absolution
Discover how the consequence of every sin of every person, including yours, has been paid for in full by the blood of Jesus.
Phase 4: Restoration
The forgiveness of Jesus moves us forward by restoring our identity and inviting us to live with purpose.
Phase 5: Sanctification
True freedom comes when we participate with Jesus in bringing His kingdom to this Earth right now. Follow Jesus!
How is Forgiving Challenge Different?
Far more people struggle with reconciling their own mistakes than forgiving others. While we ought always to excel in being gracious to others, Forgiving Challenge is unique because it leads its readers on a personal journey to truly understand and receive God’s forgiveness. Also, we are invited to then live out of the forgiveness that Jesus has already won for us. A forgiven person is a forgiving person.
