"We all know that forgiveness is complex. We also all know that it makes sense. In our Guide we quote Nelson Mandela: “Hating someone is like drinking poison and then expecting the other person to die!”
Love is our noblest motivation. The giving and forgiving love of God for all created beings is our inspiration. Jesus embodies this and we seek to follow. Hence our Studies are based on scriptural reflection, prayer and meditation.
The four of us who were drawn to offer “Forgiveness: A Study Guide” just want to see a happier and healthier culture. A lot has to change, be that as regards institutional health; the process of reconciliation; the need to prevent further climate change as well as further violence against women and children or just simply, the need to improve the tone of daily life.
But, as we discovered afresh during our work together , that change starts with us." Bp Philip Huggins
