#Matthew 18; Titus 3:5; Ephesians 2:8-9; Genesis 50:20# Henry Schorr's main point is that mercy is a fundamental aspect of the Christian faith, and it involves not only feeling compassion but also taking tangible actions to alleviate the needs of others. He emphasizes that mercy is closely linked to forgiveness and that those who have experienced God's mercy and forgiveness are called to extend it to others. Schorr highlights the story of a woman who forgave her son's murderers and chose to care for one of them, illustrating the radical nature of mercy and forgiveness. He also shares his personal experience of wanting to get revenge on someone who had wronged him, but ultimately choosing to forgive and extend mercy. Through various scripture passages and stories, Schorr encourages his listeners to choose mercy and forgiveness, rather than resentment and bitterness, and to trust in God's power to help them do so.
