Engage: What Do We Do with Evil? #10

Read: “Love and Forgiveness”

The way of God is the way of love. We always love in the midst of life as it is–rarely, if ever, loving in ideal conditions when everything is as it should be. Often, we love “nevertheless”–that is, we love when we don’t feel like loving; we love when we have reasons not to.

And as Rohr notes, this kind of love requires us to practice forgiveness. It is the love Jesus offered throughout his ministry all the way into his crucifixion. And it is the kind of love we will manifest when we abide in Christ (John 15).

We have our next Zoom meeting this coming Friday, August 5th, at Noon (ET, USA). Here is the link to use in order to join the group. I hope you can make it…
