Forgiveness: An Alternative Account, with the Rev. Matthew Potts

‘Forgiveness: An Alternative Account’ – with Guest Speaker The Rev. Matthew Ichihashi Potts. January 21st 6-8pm

During the week of Christian Unity, we are delighted that the Rev. Dr. Matthew Ichihashi Potts will be joining us at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul, to speak on the subject of ‘Forgiveness: An Alternative Account’. The ‘blurb’ from his book of the same name tells us:

Matthew Ichihashi Potts explores the complex moral terrain of forgiveness, which he claims has too often served as a salve to the conscience of power rather than as an instrument of healing or justice. Though forgiveness is often linked with reconciliation or the abatement of anger, Potts resists these associations, asserting instead that forgiveness is simply the refusal of retaliatory violence through practices of penitence and grief. It is an act of mourning irrevocable wrong, of refusing the false promises of violent redemption, and of living in and with the losses we cannot recover. 

Join us at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul (138 Tremont St, Boston). We’ll have refreshments from 6pm; the talk will begin at 6.30pm, and will include time for questions. The event is free and all are welcome; please help us to plan by signing up HERE.
