104. Church Discipline and Forgiveness


Listen Later

In Matthew 18 Jesus teaches on how we should engage with people who have sinned against us, and how we should forgive people. Two massive topics!

We mention plenty of resources in this one, including:

1. "Forgive: Why Should I and How Can I?" — Tim Keller

2. "Can We Forgive When the Offender Doesn’t Repent?" — Mike Wittmer (An excellent article untangling the difference between "internal" and "outward" forgiveness, along with "payment" and "pardon." Make sure you read to the end for a super helpful illustration!)

3. Diocesan Policy for Dealing with Allegations of Unacceptable Behaviour

4. "Renew: An Australian Guide for Christian Women Survivors of Domestic Abuse" — Free eBook, (several authors)

5. Domestic and Family Abuse Resources — Safe Minsitry (Includes lots of helpful resources, including a guide for what action to take when a person discloses domestic abuse.)

6. Are justice and forgiveness mutually exclusive? — Rachael Denhollander at USC


1800RESPECT (1800 737 732) is the national domestic, family and sexual violence counselling, information and support service.
