Why You’re Stuck, And How Forgiveness Sets You Free


Listen Later

Welcome to Week 5 of our Living Peace series. We’re still on this wild ride toward deep inner peace, and today we hit the real challenge: radical forgiveness. You have to take this step of discipleship to live in the peace of Jesus. It’s so hard that most people won’t even take the leap, which is why true peace remains so rare. We’ve come to see resentment as virtuous, even for wrongs done centuries ago, but Jesus calls us to starve resentment, uproot bitterness, and let the peace He died to give flood our hearts.

We’ll dive into Saint Maria Goretti’s powerful story, unpack Jesus’ counterintuitive command: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do”and then I’ll personally lead you step-by-step through a prayer of forgiveness. What You’ll Discover: Why resentment feels “owed” and how our gut-sense of fairness becomes a prison Saint Maria Goretti’s mercy: How an 11-year-old’s forgiveness shattered a cycle of hate Jesus’ model on the cross: “Father, forgive them” in the face of betrayal and violence A powerful prayer practice: A guided prayer exercise to drain old hurts once and for all
