The Concept of True Forgiveness

Several weeks ago, I was honored and humbled to have been asked by my friend, the Reverend Mark Lord, to be the guest pastor at the Unity of Naples Church. I have to tell you that it was a remarkable experience.

First of all, if you’ve never been to a Unity Church, I strongly recommend that you consider attending a service. No matter where you are on your spiritual journey, I can guarantee that you will be warmly welcomed with a complete absence of guilt, fear, or dogma.

My sermon was based on the second of the Four Agreements - the idea that you should never take the words or actions of another personally. This important foundational idea is central to the concept of true forgiveness. Because real forgiveness is all about letting go.

So, please take the time to listen to my Unity sermon. When you consciously disrupt the cycle of reactivity that keeps you trapped in resentment and reliving the past, you can begin to experience the freedom, inner peace, and harmony that awaits you on the other side of that release.

Love,
