In a culture that prizes outrage over reconciliation, forgiveness is increasingly seen as weakness--an outdated concept that fails to take harm seriously. But what if forgiveness isn't about minimizing justice but about restoring hope? In Forgiveness, public theologian Amy Orr-Ewing reclaims the transformative power of the biblical call to forgive and explains why it remains Christianity's most radical gift to a world in crisis. Drawing from theology, psychology, history, and literature, she explores numerous themes: - why forgiveness remains a cornerstone of human flourishing - the impact of forgiveness on both personal and cultural levels - how forgiveness upholds justice rather than undermining it - what makes Christian forgiveness unique from secular ideas of grace and justice For pastors, leaders, and all Christians who long to see a healthier, less punitive culture, this book offers a reimagined vision of forgiveness that brings healing to individuals, communities, and society.
