Recently, a Pastor friend and client of ours called to ask help with building a "Top 10" list. Hevwanted a humorous "sermon starter" for his presentation on "World Forgiveness Day." Together we built this list. He tells me it was a great success at Via de Cristo United Methodist Church. They put it up on a "Power Point" presentation and used their band to make drum rolls and exciting music. Play around with this, adapt it and enjoy. Top 10 Reasons to Forgive!
10. Alka-Selzer already has enough of your money.
9. Turning the other cheek might become the newest dance craze.

7. Not enough seeing-eye dogs trained to take this "eye-for-an-eye" thing literally.
6. It sure beats frying in Hell.
5. Forgiveness: it’s not just for heretics anymore!
4. It’s cheaper than a lawyer.
3. Decrease the chance of ever being a guest on the Jerry Springer show.
2. Two words: It’s free!
