Hey, hey, welcome to the church home podcast with Judah Smith.

My amazing husband, my name is Chelsea, and he is about to give you an incredible message,

and I know we are going to hear about Jesus and his love for you.

forgive your enemy. That's a lot to ask. And so, before I go any further, I want to say that in the

best way I can, by the help of Jesus, I'm thinking about you.

I'm thinking about the implications and the magnitude of what we find ourselves in right now.

The mere premise or even premonition to actually forgive your enemy or wish forgiveness for your

enemy is almost overwhelming right it's like i i don't know if i can do that. As a parent, for instance, when someone hurts your kids,
