In today's gospel, Jesus is telling his followers to "love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you..." Pastor Hannah reminds us how much that counters what we feel. It's too easy for us to trash-talk rival sports teams, spread scandal about celebrities, and even worse. Jesus teaches us to not only 'turn the other cheek', but to actively forgive those who wrong us. It's no an easy thing to do, but it makes sense when we remember that even those we don't like are children of God, just like we are.
