Lenten Reflections
Our director of Christian formation and education used the following video for an EYC (youth) Eucharist last Sunday:
***
We won't forgive the people who we hire to teach us about forgiveness.
A St. Paul's parishioner said this to me the other day, and I can't get it out of my head. When I asked her to elaborate, she said people expect more from clergy than anyone else and can't forgive them (us) if those expectations aren't met and if big mistakes are made. I wish it wasn't true. I think she might be right, though.
What's beyond forgivable?
