What if loving your enemies isn’t just a command… but a path to freedom?
In this episode of Let’s Talk: Faith in a Modern World, we wrestle with one of the hardest teachings of Jesus—loving those who have hurt us.

Why does forgiveness feel so unfair?
What’s the difference between God's justice and our desire for revenge?
Is it enough to resist physical retaliation, or does God care about our thoughts too?
And how can we love people who still seem set on doing harm?

This conversation is raw, honest, and necessary—especially if you're struggling with bitterness, anger, or the pain of betrayal.

Next week, we’ll continue this discussion with even deeper questions:
Can I love my enemies from a distance? What about self-defense?
Is justice the same as revenge? And what if helping my enemy puts me at risk?

Hit that bell so you don’t miss it—and thank you for being part of the conversation.
