Key Takeaways
God is calling us to excellence, not to say “I’ll try” but to do what we are called to do
Forgiveness doesn’t mean reconciliation, you still are going to need boundaries. What forgiveness does is it allows us to live our best lives and love others the way they need to be loved
“You’re living your best life in Christ, when you are forgiving every single time” - Jason Romano
