Upfront with the Archbishop
98. Saint Maria Goretti, Radical Forgiveness and a "Revolution of Tenderness"
Maria Goretti was just 11 when she forgave her would-be rapist and the man who killed her. How does a person do that? How do we grow in our ability to have mercy and forgive?
Join Archbishop Smith to hear his advice on growing in the virtue of radical forgiveness, the story of St. Maria Goretti, Pope Francis’ call for a “revolution of tenderness,” how to respond to the modern “culture of outrage” and the how the Sacrament of Reconciliation opens us up to forgiving, even in the hardest circumstances.
