Forgiveness centers the possibilities that come from a future in which we understand and accept one another. It is also one that centers compassionate faith that others will do what is right and just when we have been shown otherwise and recognize that we are no better. Forgiveness challenges us to "embrace our humanity and not deny it" (p.147) while also calling us to recognize that the person we may need to forgive the most is ourselves.
- Are there limits to forgiveness?
- How do you define forgiveness for yourself?
- When was the last time you intentionally forgave yourself for something?
