Family Road Trip - WK3: Fix the Flats

In this final message in our series called Family Road Trip, Pastor Shawn discusses the theme of forgiveness through the biblical story of Joseph from Genesis 37-50. Pastor Shawn draws parallels between family life and road trips, emphasizing how both can be messy and challenging. The sermon focuses on Joseph's journey from being sold into slavery by his brothers to becoming second-in-command in Egypt, highlighting his remarkable ability to forgive. Pastor Shawn emphasizes two main sets of tools: perseverance tools and forgiveness tools. Key points include the importance of focusing on the good, controlling what can be controlled, and understanding that forgiveness is a choice rather than a feeling. Pastor Shawn also addresses common misconceptions about forgiveness, such as the idea that it requires forgetting or trusting the offender again. The message concludes with a call to action regarding personal forgiveness and healing.
