#058: Forgiveness: The Secret to Healing and Freedom | Fr. John Burns

Forgiving someone that wounded you is difficult. Not only is forgiveness difficult, it is often over simplified and misunderstood. 

That’s why we interviewed an expert on forgiveness, who happens to be a child of divorce. In this practical episode, we address:

• What exactly is forgiveness?
• How to forgive through the four stages of forgiveness
• Why forgiveness is good for you and unforgiveness is bad for you
• How does compensation or reparation factor into forgiveness?
• Practical advice to forgive someone who feels impossible to forgive
