The Repeat Offender

Forgiveness is hard enough when an offense is in the past.  What do we do when someone continues to cause us harm or offense?  Today Cinthia explores the complexity of forgiving in situations where the offender continues to deny or minimize the offense, to inflict more pain, or to be sheltered by a family or other group that expects the victim to “get over” what happened and participate as though the hurt no longer exists (or never really existed in the first place).  She also explores what forgiveness is and is not and the difference between forgiveness and restoring relationship.  Wherever you are on the journey of forgiveness, today’s episode offers hope to take another step.
