Counterfeit Forgiveness: Has the Church Misunderstood What It Means to Forgive?

In this episode of the Mamapologist, Jennifer talks with author Teasi Cannon about her new book, _Counterfeit Forgiveness_, and challenges some commonly held Christian assumptions about what forgiveness requires. They explore the difference between biblical forgiveness and “therapeutic forgiveness,” why forgiveness does not mean excusing abuse or eliminating accountability, and how misunderstandings about forgiveness can actually harm victims and protect offenders. A thoughtful conversation about truth, repentance, justice, reconciliation, and what it really means to forgive as God has forgiven us. Counterfeit Forgiveness will be available August 28.
