Forgive from the Heart

Fr Michael Rasicci’s homily for 09/17/2023–16th Sunday after Pentecost, Calvary Episcopal Church, Batavia, IL

In the Gospel today, Jesus tells the story of a merciless servant who, after being forgiven an enormous debt by his lord, refuses to forgive another servant of a much smaller debt. The servant’s lord is angry and has the merciless servant tortured until the debt is paid in full. Jesus says that God will do likewise with us unless we can forgive from the heart.

(Readings: Exodus 14:19-31; Psalm 114; Romans 14:1-12; Matthew 18:21-35)
