Episode Synopsis
Who are we to forgive?

Yes I said dangerous.
Let's talk about forgiveness in different contexts and situations while bringing in some bible scripture that might be misunderstood in certain circumstances.
This episode is very important for people dealing with an abusive person in their life, because forgiveness means something VERY different when you are dealing with someone who is NOT truly sorry for what they have done to you.
Join me for some ideas on meaningful meditation about this topic as well as some controversial ideas around forgiveness for victims of abuse.
Takeaways
