Summary

You Get What You Allow! In this week's message titled, "I Love You BUT I Don’t Trust You!" Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. and Judah Smith are a perfect tag team to deliver an uplifting message on Matthew 18:15-17. Pastors Rich and Judah explain that forgiveness is not an instant release - but a gradual healing process, emphasizing the importance of establishing healthy boundaries as part of that journey. It entails learning to forgive without keeping score, while also recognizing the need to address issues with those who have offended you. Silence can allow offense to fester, so it's crucial not to become bound by the world's expectations or by personal relationships. Instead, understanding that setting healthy boundaries is an essential step towards maintaining emotional well-being and serving a God who values boundaries. #zoechurch #chadveach #zoemusic #liveworship #sermon #preaching #onlinechurch #Jesus #church #bible #faith #blessed #trust #process #healing #boundaries #richwilkersonjr #judahsmith

0:31.6	that abuse someone or hurt someone? What's going to happen there? And by no means when you start
0:35.8	talking about forgiveness, are you disregarding justice?
0:39.5	But rather you're surrendering, which is the entire faith journey, to the God of justice.

1:15.6	never hurts the other person, it only hurts you.
