KEY MESSAGE TAKEAWAYS

  • Forgiveness isn’t about forgetting—it’s about releasing.

  • Grace is costly but free, and Jesus already paid the price for us.

SCRIPTURE

HOSEA 1:1-2 (NIV)

The word of the Lord that came to Hosea son of Beeri during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and during the reign of Jeroboam son of Jehoash king of Israel: When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, the Lord said to him, “Go, marry a promiscuous woman and have children with her, for like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness to the Lord.” So he married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

HOSEA 3:1-2 (NIV)

The Lord said to me, “Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another man and is an adulteress. Love her as the Lord loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.” So I bought her for fifteen shekels[a] of silver and about a homer and a lethek of barley.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  • Pastor Danny mentions that "sin is a counterfeit love." What are some modern-day idols or "counterfeit loves" that people chase instead of God?

  • Discuss the statement: "Grace isn't neat or logical. It's radical, offensive, and scandalous in how far it reaches." How have you experienced this in your own life?

  • What makes forgiveness so difficult? Who do you need to forgive in your own life?

as a whoLE group or in small groups of 3-4 share what the holy spirit is speaking to you and pray for one another.
