Why Forgiveness Matters: An Interfaith Panel on Forgiveness

March 21, 2010
12:45 PMto2:00 PM

Sunday March 21, 12:45-2:00 p.m. 

Forgiveness is a key concept in Christian theology, yet every major religious tradition also holds forgiveness as central.  Why does forgiveness matter, and what role does it play in individual and communal transformation?  Moderated by Dr. Mark Hostetter, our panel will include Jewish and Christian voices.  Larger social acts of forgiveness will be part of the discussion, but the focus will be on the practical day-to-day application of this fundamental topic.
