Why is it so hard to forgive?

Christians talk a lot about forgiveness, but our actions don’t always measure up to our words. In this study, authors Susan Pendleton Jones and L. Gregory Jones help us face that question honestly and, together, work toward embodying God’s gracious forgiveness of us. Topics include:

  • The Heart of Christian Living
  • Crafting Communities of Forgiveness
  • The Dance of Forgiveness
  • Challenges to Forgiveness

As part of the study, you will read from this study & reflection guide, considering the ideas presented and recording your thoughts and responses. Then, in weekly group meetings, you will share your thoughts and hear the insights of others. Each meeting will include a video exploring the topic of forgiveness through interviews, mini-documentaries, personal testimonies, dramatic readings, and Scripture.
