13. How to Forgive an A**hole with Nadia Bolz-Weber

Being a religious leader doesn’t mean you're an expert at
practicing forgiveness. Lutheran minister Nadia Bolz-Weber says
being in quarantine gave her the ego check she needed to get real
about forgiveness and compassion -- for herself and others. This
episode’s practice is about apologies and circling back to the
relationships in your life that could use some mending.
