Forgiveness is at the heart of the Christian Gospel. It goes hand in
hand with love, mercy, and grace, the fundamental theological virtues.
However, forgiveness is easier to define than it is to embody. This
unique collection of essays brings together theologians, ethicists,
and ministry practitioners into a constructive dialog which explores
the complex and crucial concept of forgiveness: what it is, where it
is to be found, and how it might be practiced. These essays reflect
the perspectives of those from various traditions who nonetheless take
the Christian Scriptures seriously, believe that forgiveness is
central to living out the Gospel, and are creative in the ways in
which forgiveness can be practiced. Forgiveness is an art and not
simply a science; as such it requires trust, skill, and hope alongside
love, mercy, and grace if it is to be embodied. This volume offers a
unique window into the art of forgiveness and the faithful and
innovative ways in which it is to be understood, embodied, and
cultivated.
