“Forgiveness is the healing stream flowing out from the crucified Christ over a world that does not know how desperately it needs healing.” – Marjorie J. Thompson from Forgiveness: A Lenten Study
Why “forgiveness”? What is “forgiveness”? When should I ask for “forgiveness”? When should I grant “forgiveness”? What do I do when I don’t feel moved to forgive? What if a person I’ve wronged refuses to grant me “forgiveness”? What about “reconciliation”? What is “absolution”? What is the significance of the Rite of Reconciliation of the Penitent? Come explore the Scriptural foundations of “forgiveness”, the concept of “forgiveness” in the Christian context and the healing power of “forgiveness” with our deacon, the Rev. Ken Parris, on four consecutive Tuesdays in Lent. Classes will be held in EB1 March 3, 10, 17 and 24 from 6:30pm to 8:00pm.
