Illuminating Forgivness

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Southern Soul Chats, Dr. Ferguson and Jeremy Ferguson chat about the challenging, transformative journey of forgiveness. Forgiveness is often misunderstood as a feeling or something we do only when we’re ready. But in truth, forgiveness is an act of obedience, rooted in God’s example of mercy and grace. We explore the difference between righteous and destructive anger, the impact of holding onto unforgiveness, and how choosing to forgive protects our hearts from the enemy’s schemes. Drawing from Scripture, we discuss practical ways to cultivate a forgiving spirit, even when it feels difficult or undeserved. Through stories, insights, and biblical principles, we’re reminded that forgiveness is a reflection of God's heart—and a powerful way to guard our relationships and our own peace. Tune in as we discover how God equips us to forgive, not based on feelings, but on the foundation of His love within us. This episode encourages us to let go of bitterness, embrace freedom, and offer others the same grace we've received through Christ. **Trigger warning, there is minimal content around sexual abuse** Biblical Rooting: Ephesians 4:26-27 NIV “In your anger do not sin”a]">[a]: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold."
