As a boy in Darwin, Allan Quak found himself on a light plane that had flown into a tropical thunderstorm. When he asked, how they would get out of the storm despite not being able to see anything, the three licensed pilots on board all gave the same answer - trust the instruments.

In today's episode of Family Worship, Allan Quak from Bible Society Australia brings us a message on trusting God, and resting on the promises of Scripture to help us through the storm clouds of our lives.

Bible Society Australia exists to impact and influence Australia and the world by opening the Bible to all people everywhere by all means possible.

Forgiving somebody can be one of the most difficult things we do. It's not easy to offer forgiveness to someone who has hurt us.

But when we forgive, we can experience peace in our soul and can move on from bitterness and resentment.

Today's message comes from Chris Podlich who is the pastor of Beyond Church in Griffin. Chris will look at a system he calls the cycle of forgiveness and how this can help us to forgive more freely.

Beyond Church meets every Sunday at 10am in Griffin State School on Wesley Road in Griffin.
