Extreme Forgiveness

We are revisiting Matthew 18:21-35 in a sermon called "Extreme Forgiveness".  Previously we had looked in depth at Matthew 18:15-20 and then quickly looked at Matthew 18:21-35.   In this sermon we look briefly at the first section and spend the majority of our time in the second as we examine what Jesus means by telling Peter to forgive someone "seventy-seven" times and then Jesus further explains this idea through a powerful story about forgiveness.  In this passage we are presented with the difficult challenge of understanding true forgiveness and giving that forgiveness to those who have hurt us.  Undergirding all of this is an incredible picture of how God has forgiven us through Christ.
