Our goal is to proclaim the genuine good news—that’s what “Gospel” means—of Christ’s forgiveness for you. We do not offer you better tips, techniques or checklists. Instead, You Are Forgiven is sermons by faithful pastors who will clearly show how you cannot be forgiven by your own efforts, no matter how well you do on your homework, your checklist of tasks. But they will also show how you are actually and already forgiven because Jesus has done all that is needed, for you!

Have you ever wondered, of all the adjectives we could use to describe this day why in the world we chose the word “good?” Yeah, me too.

There was another criminal next to Christ the day he died. He was aware of who Jesus was, and why he was there.

Attacked by sin, robbed by Satan, lacerated by death—there we lay, unable to help ourselves. Yet He helps us who can never help ourselves.

It’s a miracle anyone believes the Gospel. It goes against everything else we believe in.

No, when the Lord is ready for battle, of all creatures, he commissions Mary’s little lamb.

That man you see on the tree—he is the re-Genesis of the world. He has come to remake us alive and free and beautiful on the Friday of his crucifixion.

Cindy’s tragedy was that she was blind to the Christ from whom all her good gifts came.

700 years before the first Noel, the prophet Isaiah prophesied that Christ would bear our grief and deliver us in grace. Scholars often refer to Isaiah 52:13-53:12 as the "fifth gospel" because it describes both that Christ was crucified and why Christ was crucified with incredible detail.

We are like the spoiled children of kings who spit in the face of paupers on the street. We have been given so much, yet we treasure so little.

There has only been one baptism in the history of the world: the baptism of Jesus. “One Lord, one faith, one baptism.”
