Description: "Forgive and forget" is not a Gospel mandate! Rather, Jesus calls his disciples past and present, to not only confront and turn from our own sins, but also to serve as his “ambassadors of reconciliation” (II Cor. 5) in helping to heal the fractures of moral failure that personal and social human sinfulness brings to our morally complex world.
