| Summary: | The author preaches on the theme of reconciliation and forgiveness. The author admits that the prayer of Jesus as written in Luke 23:33-34 is personally difficult and challenging for her considering that Jesus asks God to release his persecutors from their wrongdoing on the grounds that God knows their human fallibility and ignorance. With Jesus expressing a new level of trust in God's mercy, even his executors are given the hope of redemption. In Colossians 1:11-20, Paul boasts of how God reconciles all things through Jesus' blood shed on the cross. |
