In these times of outrage and fear, what can help us become forgiving people?
Author Amy Orr-Ewing joined us for a recent online conversation, where we explored these questions for a live audience:
“The church needs to recapture the vision of forgiveness as an actuality. This is something real rooted in the sacrifice of Jesus at the cross. And it’s that that has actually been the animating force of the Christian faith throughout history.”
This episode is drawn from an Online Conversation in 2026. You can view the transcript and other resources here.
We live in an unforgiving age. Even as we know that Jesus commanded forgiveness, extending it can seem impossible, impractical, self-harming, even unjust.
