According to their site: "POTSC is launching the NEVER BEYOND Poster Series: 25 posters representing well known historical, current and fictional characters who are believed to have harmed society. This campaign consists of digital and print posters and the full collection will eventually be displayed as a touring art exhibit."
The first poster was not who I thought it would be with all of history to chose from. But instead they chose someone recently impacted American culture.
Recognize it? Truthfully, I didn't. As of late I follow little media. But once I understood who it was Casey Anthony, I understood why they chose this one. I know little of the case or decision by the courts. But even me with my limited knowledge had my heart seized at the thought of treating her with forgiveness. My maternal instincts kicked into overdrive.
What would I do?
What would you do?
I don't know. Given my past experiences with something similar, I can't say I did a good job with truly forgiving. But I pray that I would be different this time. Now that I understand forgiveness a bit more.
Let me know what you would do in the comments.

Cassi- I have not done a good job at truly forgiving at all. BUT, being POTSC has challenged me to dispense grace in a way I never have...
ReplyDeletethank you for posting this.
I didn't recognize Casey Anthony until you said it. I think this will be a wonderful series and an interesting and provocative way to start the grace discussion.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see more of the series!
This is quite a thought-provoking post. It almost seems easier to forgive the people who directly wronged you than it is to forgive a public figure like this, and poor Casey Anthony, it seems like almost the entire country needs to forgive her. You've made me really examine my own heart!
