Explore forgiveness through real-life stories

Mark Henderson
"Returning to Colombia, and hearing Antonio say sorry, and that he regretted what they’d done, was very healing indeed."
Karsten Mathiasen
"At first, I thought I was the great forgiver, but in the end I was the one to ask for forgiveness."
Wael Salame
"I have remained active ever since, believing passionately that if Palestinian freedom fighters and former Israeli soldiers can form a group with a common cause, then anyone can."
Margot Van Sluytman
"At first I hated the very notion of forgiveness. To tell someone who is in pain to forgive is brutal. Forgiveness can’t be prescriptive."
