Today’s episode is for anyone wrestling with forgiveness after real harm, where “just forgive” feels impossible and even unfair. My guest is Rev. Cheryl Kincaid, and she brings a trauma-aware, deeply biblical perspective on the difference between forgiving and excusing, and why forgiveness isn’t always the same as reconciliation. We talk about boundaries, repentance, confession, and practical steps toward healing without pretending your pain didn’t happen.
