THE AFTERWORD | Matthew : Season 8 - Week 3
Title: Matthew (Season 8) - Week 2
Description:
There may be no idea in our culture today that’s more universally applauded and less examined than the idea of vengeance. It’s embedded, almost unquestioningly, in our culture. Our most popular stories are based around vengeance. John Wick. The Equalizer. “My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.” Even the biggest movie franchise in history is called The Avengers. It’s everywhere. Jay and I sit down to discuss Matthew 18 and Jesus’ teachings on forgiveness. And we find that Jesus insists that vengeance and forgiveness are actually opposite things, but that forgiveness and justice are NOT opposite, but are linked and dance together in important ways.
