What is your immediate response to those who have hurt you? For many of us, it's retaliation - our hearts, and the culture around us, has conditioned us to "get even," to bring upon those who have hurt us the same (or, in some cases, more) pain than we have received from them. Yet this sort of response only seems to bring us more and more violence.
Listen as Pastor Clint unpacks one of the more difficult teachings of Jesus, one that is so often neglected (even by Christians), and yet proven to be transformative when embodied by Christians throughout history.
