Much thanks to you and Rev. Rosengren for sharing this sermon! Our congregation is walking through the painful aftermath of sexual abuse by clergy. This teaching is incredibly helpful.
Thank you for this. I have been told I should trust people again because the past is in the past. When people order me to trust people who abused me or act like they did, it seems like it is opening me up to being abused again and takes away any self protection. Basically they are telling me not to trust my instincts when I feel someone is not trustworthy. This was great comfort to me as Joseph didn't automatically trust them because it was in the past. Thank you for this great post!
Thank you. So good. I have often suggested to those who've been deeply mistreated and wounded, "Look for consistency over time. Anyone can moonwalk." We see this born out in the story of Joseph and his brothers. I would love to be able to share this message.
Thank you Scot and thank you Mother Amanda for allowing Scot your draft from the presentation. When I heard this a couple Sundays ago live, it spoke well to my heart. As you said, for reconciliation to be real, it must be directed and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
I finally got around to reading this today. It is so very good and so helpful. I'm often talking to my counseling clients about forgiveness and reconciliation and this is very helpful.

Oh this is amazing. I’ll be thinking about this for a while, because we have several ruptured relationships in our familiy, my husband and I.
Thank you 🙏🏼
