Welcome to the VU Church podcast.

Today, Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. continues our collection of talks, daddy issues, dealing

with your past to embrace your future.

In this message, stop the bleeding, start the blessing.

We discover three practical ways we can be a blessing to others, as we practice forgiveness

and heal from the past.

For resources and exercises to help you on the journey, visit vuchurch.com slash daddy

issues.

Let's lean into the message together.

What we're continuing today, a collection of talks next week or in a finish it will be

five weeks in, but today is week four of a collection of talks entitled, Daddy Issues.

We've been talking about dealing with the past so that we can embrace our future.

We've been doing a whole lot of work.

There's a lot of resources at vuchurch.com slash daddy issues, books that you can read,

general grams that you can fill out.

I'd encourage if you missed any of the messages, I really think all of these messages really

kind of work in chronological order.

And last week was really a day of healing for so many of us in this room because many

of you, you had the courage to face the past, but not just face it.

You said, I'm going to forgive.

That's a big deal to go back and deal with your father wounds and forgive.

No one will tell you this, but you ought to know forgiveness hurts.
