The Duty to Forgive—No Matter How Difficult

The Duty to Forgive—No Matter How Difficult

Author: Dale Partridge August 11, 2021 Duration: 24:57
Forgiveness is at the core of our relationship with God and our relationship with others. The Bible speaks firmly about the Christian’s duty to forgive, but how far does this duty extend? Are we to forgive any and all sins committed against us? If so, why? Pastor Dale Partridge unpacks this issue by looking at a parable shared in the Gospel of Matthew.

Dale Partridge sits down each week to tackle the complex questions that often linger in the minds of believers, moving beyond simple platitudes to explore the substance of faith. In Real Christianity, these aren't abstract debates; they're grounded, practical discussions addressing the theological puzzles and real-life pastoral situations that people actually face. Every episode is a concise, focused conversation, typically wrapping up in ten to fifteen minutes, making it a thoughtful companion for a daily commute or a quiet moment of reflection. You'll hear Dale draw from scripture and lived experience to provide clarity on topics that can feel confusing or overwhelming, all with the aim of making faith feel more accessible and deeply rooted. This podcast cuts through the noise, offering a space where curiosity meets conviction, and where difficult questions are met with thoughtful, biblically-informed perspectives. It’s for anyone seeking a more authentic and understood spiritual life, one honest conversation at a time.
