Sermon: "Cultivating Forgiveness" from Matthew 5:7; Ephesians 4.30–32

Pastor Colin Smith preached this sermon "Cultivating Forgiveness" on the Beatitudes and Ephesians 4:30–32 at The Orchard EFC in suburban Chicago in 2013. “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy." Matthew 5:7 If you like the series, you'll enjoy the book the series inspired: Momentum: Pursuing God’s Blessings through the Beatitudes from Moody Publishers. Sermon Series Description: The Beatitudes are not telling you how to become a Christian—they tell you what a true Christian looks like. Everyone wants to be blessed. We want to be blessed in life, blessed in death, and blessed in eternity. In the Beatitudes, the Son of God tells us about the life that is blessed and about the people who are blessed. But Jesus does more than just describe a blessed life—He gives us a way to actually pursue it. Open the Bible is the teaching ministry of Pastor Colin Smith. Our mission is to use a broad array of modern media to help people around the world meet Jesus. We do this by opening the Bible for them, helping them open the Bible themselves, and equipping them to open the Bible with others. ▶️ SUBSCRIBE to our channel    / @openthebibleorg   🎧 BROWSE more teaching content https://openthebible.org/ 📚 READ Daily Devotionals https://openthebible.org/daily/ 👨‍🏫 GROW with our practical training for leaders https://openthebible.org/leaders/ 📱 DOWNLOAD the Open the Bible App https://openthebible.org/app/ 📖 LEARN the Bible Story https://openthebible.org/open-the-bib... 🔗 CONNECT with Us on Social   / openthebibleorg     / openthebibleorg     / pastorcolins     / openthebibleorg     / openthebibleorg     / openthebibleorg
