Remember When I...

Forgiveness can be tough, but it’s powerful. In “Remember When I...?,” middle schoolers will explore how forgiving others — and themselves — brings peace. This three week series helps them see that learning to forgive can impact the way they relate to themselves, God, and others.

WEEK 1: You can forgive. (1 Thessalonians 5:15)

WEEK 2: Forgive like you've been forgiven. (Romans 5:8, Colossians 3:13)

WEEK 3: Forgiveness takes time. (Matthew 18:21-22)

REMEMBER THIS
Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4:32, NIV
