DECONSTRUCTING HISTORY

Breathing Forgiveness

"It’s interesting that Jesus identifies forgiveness with breathing, the one thing that we have done constantly since we were born and will do until we die. He says God’s forgiveness is like breathing. Forgiveness is not apparently something God does, it is who God is."

Richard Rohr
