    "Forgiven, Forgiving, and Forgetting" | Part 3

    My heart truly breaks for people who’ve told me… “But pastor, you have no idea what they did to me” or “You’ve never had to go through what I went through,” and of course, “I can’t forgive someone who’s not even remotely remorseful.” While hanging on the Cross, Jesus looked upon the most undeserving people responsible for His unjustified suffering and prayed openly, “Father, forgive them.” That forces us to confront a difficult truth:  Forgiveness was never dependent upon the offender deserving it, but rather forgiveness is tied to the victim avoiding emotional imprisonment.  Furthermore, forgiveness does not do 3 things: 1. erase consequences, 2. automatically restore trust, nor does it 3. pretend that what happened was acceptable. It means I refuse to allow someone else’s offense to determine the condition of my heart. So join us this Sunday in person at 11am, or catch this message premiered on YouTube the following Sunday at the same time.  Remember Grace is never about what they deserve… Because after all, the grace that saves us is not about what we deserve either.

    "Forgiven, Forgiving, and Forgetting" | Part 3

    "Forgiven, Forgiving, and Forgetting" | Part 2

    Does somebody still owe you something? I’m not talking about money, actually something far more important: An apology? A truthful explanation? Maybe some real restitution? Or what if someone “owes” you for time wasted, say in a failed relationship… maybe even years. Or worse… taken the life of a loved one? Hello, I’m Pastor Daniel Wright of Heart of Worship Church, and this Sunday we’re continuing our series, FORGIVEN, FORGIVING, AND FORGETTING. In Matthew 18, Jesus tells the story of a man who was forgiven an enormous debt—only to walk away and immediately demand payment from somebody who owed him. This Sunday begins part 2 called, “Cancel the Debt.” Hidden inside that story is one of the deepest truths about un-forgiveness: Sometimes we’re spending our lives trying to “collect a debt” that the other person could never possibly repay. You see…. forgiveness doesn’t mean, “what they did doesn’t matter…” It reconciles that, “I’m not going to spend the rest of my life trying to collect payment for it.” While naturally painful to endure and difficult to release, (especially considering the worst possible scenarios…)  As Christians, Forgiveness is not a recommendation; it is a REQUIREMENT.  …AND YES, no matter what someone has done to you or others you love.  This message is a critical one for any believer:  new born Christian, or one seasoned in the faith. Some debts are far too expensive to try to keep collecting. So it’s time now, ..to cancel the debt.

    "Forgiven, Forgiving, and Forgetting" | Part 1

    Forgiveness: This is a very critical aspect of our Christianity, because our origin story began when Christ forgave us of our sin offering Jesus a confession of faith with a heart of repentance.  …So, exactly what does  that look like? What does it really mean to be forgiven? - This Sunday we’re beginning a brand-new series called FORGIVEN, FORGIVING, AND FORGETTING. (And yes, that part too.) Before we can understand how to forgive the people who have hurt us, we first need to understand the incredible debt that God has forgiven in us. - Jesus described sin as a debt we could never possibly repay. But the Gospel declares that what we could not pay, Jesus Christ paid for us. This Sunday, we’re beginning with part 1, “The Debt I Could Never Pay.” We’re going to discover that forgiveness isn’t pretending the debt never existed. It’s recognizing that the debt was real—and discovering the incredible grace of having it released.  To help release what others “owe you,” you need to remember what Jesus released from you…See you then.

    Trinity

    This is probably clearest and most in-depth explanation of the Trinity out there. You have never heard it taught like this, proving that both Oneness and the Trinity are both correct at the same time, we are just looking at it from a one-sided limited perception that can very easily be expanded by taking one simple truth into consideration! Listen closely to find out what it is, that makes it all make sense!

    In the Courtroom of Heaven | Part 4 "The Final Verict"

    No matter who you are…  No matter what you’ve done…. You’re life isn’t over yet. The Final Word has yet to be spoken... and your past is only a part of your whole story. Your failures?  Your mistakes? Only a part of it.  The accusations of others and especially Satan himself is just that:  Accusations.  Romans chapter 8 asks:  “Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect?”  And Scripture answers:  “It is GOD that justifieth.” We’ve watched Satan stand against Joshua. We’ve watched him seek permission to test Job. We’ve seen him desire to “have Peter” so that he may “sift” (or ‘separate’) him from Jesus… …But now we come to the conclusion of the matter:  The accuser does NOT determine the verdict… God does!  The bond has been set, but Christ Jesus made the payment!  He took our death penalty, but rose again, now seated at the right hand of God the Father making intercession for us… PLEADING OUR CASE!  Remember, the accusation, the evidence, and all your trials themselves combined isn’t the end of your testimony… God gets the final verdict!

    In the Courtroom of Heaven | Part 3 "The Advocacy"

    The disciple Peter was very much a well-meaning follower of Jesus: zealous, motivated, energized, …but Jesus often had to help him pace things out to simple wisdom.  At one point, Jesus tells Peter, “Satan has desired to have you, to ‘sift you as wheat’” The enemy had a target on Peter; to destroy him. You see, Jesus knew Peter was about to experience one of the greatest failures of his life. —  But then Jesus said something extraordinary: — “But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not.”  We’re going to discover what it means to have Jesus Christ not only as our Savior, but as our Advocate and Intercessor. — Because while the enemy may be accusing and attacking…  Jesus is interceding and defending.  He could already see Peter’s failure, but He also saw Peter’s restoration!   Email Us:  info@heartofworshipchurch.com Visit Our Website:  www.heartofworshipchurch.com

    "In the Courtroom of Heaven" | Part 2 "The Cross Examination"

    The accuser, Satan, does much more than accuse, he’s also our tempter, and our buffeter.  One of the greatest examples of this is found in the book of Job, more specifically, in chapter 1 where he actually challenges God on Job’s faithfulness to him exclusively tied to God’s blessing upon him.  Job was a man who feared God, and walked uprightly.  Yet Satan stood before God and challenged the authenticity of Job’s faith…In other words: “Take away the blessings, and Job will walk away from You,” but Satan discovered something that suffering couldn’t take away.  We look at one of Scripture’s most remarkable encounters between God and Satan and discover what it teaches us about spiritual opposition, God’s sovereignty, the boundaries of the enemy, and a faith that can survive the fire. Your faith may be tested…Your world may be shaken, but God who is the author of life is still on the throne writing your ending!
