Sample sermon transcript output

0:00 – 0:12

Good morning, everyone. Today we're going to talk about the power of forgiveness and how it transforms not just those we forgive, but ourselves.

0:13 – 0:28

Turn with me to Matthew chapter 18, verse 21, where Peter asks Jesus: "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me?"

0:29 – 0:41

Jesus replied, "Not seven times, but seventy-seven times." What does that mean for us today, in our daily lives, in our relationships?
