Description

This episode of Just Common Sense confronts one of the hardest calls in the Christian life: forgiveness after unthinkable violence. Dr. Johnny Hunter walks through the moment Erica Kirk publicly forgave her husband’s assassin and explains why forgiveness isn’t weakness—it’s spiritual courage that disarms hate and invites healing.

You’ll hear how biblical wisdom (Proverbs, Psalm 133, Philippians 2; 2 Timothy 3) grounds a response that refuses outrage as the final word, and how mercy clears a path toward true unity without abandoning truth. Along the way, we apply common-sense faith to the week’s headlines and offer practical steps for living grace in a divided age. Highlights:
  • Why public forgiveness matters—and what it isn’t
  • Unity that doesn’t compromise conviction
  • Practical, common-sense ways to respond to cultural pain with faith
If this encourages you, share it with someone who’s grieving today.
