Nomad Podcast Marina Cantacuzino - The Forgiveness Project (N105)
10 years ago Marina Cantacuzino began to interview people who had suffered all sorts of trauma, abuse and wrongdoing, but who instead of choosing vengeance chose forgiveness.
It's easy as Christians to think that we've cornered the market on forgiveness, but listening to these stories from people from a range of faith traditions and none is deeply challenging and inspiring.
So we asked Marina to share the wisdom she's gained from working on The Forgiveness Project.
“Some people will say you earn forgiveness, you deserve it, you show repentance and apology and remorse. But for many people…forgiveness is an act of self-healing.” - Marina Cantacuzino
