Fr. Stephen Freeman
Orthodox Christians make a beginning of their Lenten discipline with the forgiving of everyone for everything (theoretically). The ritual expression of forgiveness can easily and often be little more than a ritual. It reminds us of the need to forgive, but does not, on its own, achieve what it expresses. This should not be surprising – forgiveness is perhaps the most difficult spiritual undertaking.
