For the two Lent Midweek Services this year, we will be looking at the portion of Luther's Catechism that talks about forgiveness and confession. While on the surface, these things seem easy and obvious, they are also two aspects of the Christian Life that tend to be difficult at times. This evening, we will consider forgiveness - we will marvel at God's gracious forgiveness in all our sins and address why it is hard at times for us to forgive. Having examined forgiveness, in two weeks, our attention will turn to confession and why it is hard to admit we are wrong.
