In this powerful final episode of our three part series on FORGIVENESS, Pastor Jason Hillier from Valley Creek Church in Flower Mound, TX joins the show to talk about what God has to say about forgiveness.
Let me tell you about Jason Hillier and his journey into ministry. It all started twelve years back when he made the call to join a church staff. Now, here’s the thing—he’s quick to point out that working in a church isn’t any holier than any other way God calls you. His itch for ministry wasn’t some grand spiritual calling; it was more like a burning desire to dive into discipleship and get up close and personal with sharing God’s word. And that’s a friendly nudge that each one of us has a unique path to serve God, no matter where life plants us.
During this episode, we dive deep into what biblical forgiveness is, and what it isn’t. And guess what? It’s not about erasing the past, like wiping a slate clean. It’s more like a choice not to loop those old hurts on repeat. It’s like deliberately shedding the weight of grudges and moving forward.
And here’s where it gets interesting. Jason’s not just dropping wisdom bombs; he’s pushing us to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty with forgiveness. Let’s be real—it’s not a one-step magic trick. It’s a whole process that needs some intention and guts to face the hurt head-on. Jason’s all about acknowledging the pain and giving it a moment of mourning before you think about extending that olive branch of forgiveness.
In an added bonus of wisdom, Jason points out that forgiveness isn’t just some once-and-done thing. It’s a full-on transformation. When you choose to forgive, it’s not just about loosening your own chains; it’s about making room for healing, growth, and building stronger connections.
So, my friends, this episode is like sitting down with Pastor Jason Hillier, swapping stories and wisdom about forgiveness. This episode helps us rethink what forgiveness really means..and guides us in realizing the power it has to shake up our lives. As we wrap up this three-part series on forgiveness, I want you to take a sec and think about your own forgiveness journey. It’s not a weak move—it’s a brave step toward personal freedom and the kind of growth that really counts.
Who do you need to forgive? I bet you know exactly who it is. Take a step with us on this journey today!
