In this episode of The Recap, Pastor Jay unpacks Week 4 of Call Me Crazy with a challenging message: “Call me crazy, but I’ll pray for my enemies.”
It’s easy to love those who love us back—but what about those who hurt us? The world says to hold grudges, get even, and repay evil with evil. But in Matthew 5, Jesus flips that mindset upside down: “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”
Even on the cross, Jesus demonstrated this radical love when He prayed, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” If Jesus did it, we are called to do the same.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• Why praying for your enemies is a command, not an option.
• How unforgiveness can keep you from true freedom.
• What it means to follow Jesus’ example of radical love.
Holding onto offense weighs you down, but choosing to love and pray for those who have hurt you brings healing. Call me crazy, but choosing forgiveness sets you free!
