Where can you buy a Noritake dinner set worth $500 for $1 a plate, send hundreds of dollars of donations to Fiji, and find therapy in sorting second-hand clothes with friends? For decades, a small church op shop in Wentworthville has been transforming lives, both for those who shop there and those who volunteer.
Forgiveness isn't about excusing wrongdoing or forgetting pain – it's about freeing ourselves to move forward. But understanding what forgiveness truly means, and how to extend it, requires a deeper look at this misunderstood concept.
This week, Helping Hands explores the complex journey of forgiveness with psychologist Collett Smart, Vision Christian Radio CEO Phil Edwards, and chaplain and author Raewyn Elsegood.
Keith Garner, Collett Smart and Nathan Brewer join host Laura Bennett to discuss the benefits of being part of a vibrant and life-giving community to both the community and the individuals.
