Red Letter Challenge – Week 3

FORGIVING

Receiving & Releasing Grace

Scripture: John 8:1–11; Matthew 18:21–35
Theme: From captivity → to freedom

1. Read

Read John 8:1–11. Notice what Jesus does before He speaks. What does He say to the crowd? What does He say to the woman?

Read Matthew 18:21–35. What did the servant forget?

2. Reflect

Am I standing in shame, holding a stone, or both?

What debt am I still expecting to be repaid?

What has Jesus forgiven in me?

Forgiveness is not about forgetting what was done to you.
It is about remembering what was done for you.

3. Practice

Before you repeat the story, pray blessing over the person who hurt you.

• Lower your tone.
• Release the debt to God.
• Receive again the mercy of Jesus.
