In Part 2 of our forgiveness conversation, we explore the deeper layers of what it really means to forgive — not just others, but places, seasons, systems, and even ourselves.

We walk through Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s four-step process of forgiveness — telling the story, naming the hurt, granting forgiveness, and renewing or releasing — and unpack why tru...
