Description
How difficult it can be to forgive others or to accept forgiveness, or even to allow that someone who had offended the community has been reconciled and received back into it ...
For two millennia Christians have pondered the scope of the forgiveness Jesus taught and lived. They have celebrated practices and rites that have enabled the faithful to forgive, to be forgiven, and to accept that God brings reconciliation even when we find it almost impossible to forgive.
This book traces that history to the present, offering a sense not only of how rites of reconciliation matter to Catholics but how our struggles with forgiveness are a real contribution to reconciliation in our world.
Professor Gerard Moore is Principal and CEO of Broken Bay Institute – The Australian Institute of Theological Education.
