Forgiveness is an art. There are many dimensions and colors to the story of forgiveness. From a small child saying they are sorry for taking something without asking to a nation seeking forgiveness and reconciliation for the sins to their people.

Forgiveness is one of the most powerful forces in human interaction. In the act of forgiveness there is grace and healing.

To be forgiven is an invitation to live in a fundamentally different way with the one who has extended forgiveness. To be forgiven means that one can no longer live in the same way. 

Forgiveness heals, restores and renews. It is in the depth and radicalness of this grace that we are both enticed and scared.

Forgiveness is a step in the journey to a new way of life – transformation – that leads us to extend goodness to others and become healers in the world.
