417: Coming Clean With God

Hello, my friend. We make mistakes, don’t we? We make stupid decisions, some of use more than others. We sin. And God, in his kindness, has given us a tool to deal with it. To resolve the regret or shame left behind by those bad decisions. He has given us confession.

Hello, friend. Thank you for joining me this week. If you’ve missed some episodes or are just tuning in for the first time, this is a great place to start. We’re talking about what happens when grace happens, something I didn’t fully understand until I was years into ministry. I pray you understand it today.
415: The First Step Toward Forgiveness
2026-03-30 | 26 mins.
Hi, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. This week’s episode brings us to a story you’ve probably heard; you may even hear it this Holy Week. In John chapter 13, we read about Jesus washing his followers’ feet. This passage is often referred to when teaching about service or humility. But it also offers something else very important—how to respond to someone who hurts you.

Hello, friend. Thanks for joining me. In today’s episode we see how God not only forgives us—every sin, even those we never know we commit—but also invites us into his family. You are more than forgiven, my friend. You are beloved.
