Live Conversation with Pastor Dwayne: Forgiveness, Prayer & Why Mark 11:26 Matters

Join me and Pastor Dwayne for a gracious, Bible-centered conversation on Mark 11:26—Jesus’ call to forgive and how unforgiveness can hinder our prayer life. We’ll look at what this means for everyday discipleship, street-level ministry, and healthy church relationships.

Along the way, Pastor Dwayne will also walk us through how to think about Bible footnotes and manuscript notes you may see in your translation. Using the discussion around Mark 16:9–20 as a case study, we’ll talk about:

What those “earliest manuscripts” notes actually mean (in plain language)

Why many Christians still read and preach the longer ending of Mark

How early church voices and the wider manuscript tradition fit into the picture

How all of this can strengthen—not shake—your confidence in Scripture

What we’ll cover

Forgiveness and answered prayer (Mark 11:25–26)

Practical steps to reconcile and walk in freedom

Reading your Bible wisely when you see footnotes or brackets

Hope for anyone struggling with bitterness, church hurt, or disappointment

Our posture
This conversation is pastoral and encouraging. We’re not here to attack people; we’re here to build faith, love the Church, and point to Jesus.

Scriptures to read ahead
Mark 11:20–26; Matthew 6:9–15; Ephesians 4:31–32; Psalm 66:18; (and for the manuscript chat) Mark 16:9–20.
