Today’s discussion centers around Holy Week rituals, with personal experiences shared about Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and foot-washing traditions. We explore the themes of grace, mercy, and forgiveness, illustrated by the story of the thieves crucified alongside Jesus. The transformative power of divine forgiveness and the importance of extending grace to oneself and others are emphasized. A heartwarming anecdote about ‘milk skating’ teaches lessons on handling mistakes with love and creativity, while theological insights from Jürgen Moltmann’s ‘The Crucified God’ highlight God’s relationship with humanity through Jesus’ sacrifice.
