Dr. Joel Hunter’s Challenge: Make the world a better place by doing one thing this week.

As Dr. Hunter was talking in this interview, it showed me that what the world needs more is the forgiveness of God.

We’d love to help you and your church discover what freedom in forgiveness feels like by exploring the powerful forgiveness that Jesus offers to each and every one of us.

We’d love to introduce you to the 40-Day Forgiving Challenge.

The Forgiving Challenge takes you on a life-changing journey to experience the gift of God’s grace so that you can share it with others. It also helps you identify and walk through the five phases leading to freedom.
