God is not only the God of second chances; He is the God of another chance. This is good news because most of us mess up that second chance fairly quickly. The Bible is full of people who received second chances, and even third and fourth chances. We identify and discuss some of those people. And then discuss what second chances mean for us in our relationship with God and our relationships with others. Scriptures referenced include Exodus 34:6; Jonah 1; 2 Samuel 11:14-17; Joshua 2; Matthew 26:69-75; Psalm 86:15; Micah 7:18; Colossians 3:12-13; Matthew 6:15; Ephesians 4:32; Proverbs 19:11; Matthew 18:21-22; Psalm 103:10-12; and John 8:1-11.
