On the threshold of Great Lent, the Church calls us to the
high calling of forgiveness, but many of us do not fully understand that
forgiveness isn’t something we do to others; it is something we experience with
others. When we invite others to share the common space of our heart, we share
a divine experience following the example of Christ. We cannot fully experience
Great Lent without first allowing others into our heart. It is this shared
experience that draws us closer to God and each other. It is the common
experience we call Orthodox Christianity.
