Do you forgive? ...
I was watching NBC’s Today Show this morning and one of the featured stories really struck a nerve with me.
It was about a couple who decided to forgive their daughter’s killer, a young man who shot her in the head in a fit of rage.
Today Show host Savannah Guthrie said the story wasn’t about forgiveness, but about “radical forgiveness.”
In my several years as religion editor, I’ve done quite a few stories about forgiveness, including several that were just as poignant as this story featured on the Today Show.
For one, there was Brooks Douglass, the former state legislator who forgave the killer of his parents. Many of you already know that he famously chronicled his forgiveness journey in the film he helped write and produce “Heaven’s Rain.”
