35. Forgiveness is a Double Edged Sword | Forgiving What You Can’t Forget Chapter 1
1/9/2024
Do you know what a double edged sword is? It's a sword that has two sharp edges - literally. Figuratively when you someone refers to something being a double edged sword it refers to something that has both good and bad consequences and how you can't get one without the other. When you're using a double-edged sword, you have to be careful that you don't cut yourself when you're trying to swing it at an opponent. In her book forgiving what you can't forget Lysa Terkeurst refers to forgiveness being a double edged sword. Interesting thought, right? I agree and today we're going to explore this concept presented in the bible and then briefly explore what Lysa means when she refers to forgiveness as a double edged sword. Let's get into it!

34. Forgiving What You Can’t Forget | A Journey with Lysa Terkeurst
1/2/2024
If you've ever been betrayed by someone then you can relate to Lysa Terkeurst. The super straight forward version of her testimony is that she's a well known ministry leader in some circles whose husband cheated on her. She had to sort of walk out that season of her life as a ministry leader and navigate that as someone who is well known with eyes on her. So in this episode I want to share a little bit more about who she is, why we're diving into her book and set the tone for what to expect from Radical this year as well as a contest that we're currently running.
