"Forgive the shooter." Those were the final words of the man who was shot in a murder spree a couple of weeks ago.
Charlie Sykes (one of our favorite talk-radio guys in our area) didn't understand. "How could he say that? I couldn't do it. Does that make me a bad Christian? What does it mean to 'forgive'?!"
"Peter from Sussex" called in with a very good answer. He got to say a lot. (The set-up and the conversation with Pastor went from about the 5-min mark to about 13-minutes.) Then Charlie continued the topic with other callers, as he struggled to understand forgiveness. Now Charlie should come to Didache.

"You're obviously a thoughtful and intelligent man."
ReplyDeleteUm, yeah. :-)
Just needed less of Charlie and more of "Pete."
