Columbine victim teaches forgiveness

Mark Taylor, shot in the 1999 tragedy, has a new book out and hopes to become a pastor.

Mark Taylor's book focuses on forgiveness. He said he has forgiven Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, and has spent time talking with gang members and veterans about forgiving others...

Re: Columbine victim teaches forgiveness

That's great BlaznFattyz. If we never forgive, we end up harboring hatred, bitterness and anger, and that can't be a good good thing, or what God wants. It's always best to forgive, if only for sake of self, imo. That's what Jesus taught, and displayed on the cross...to forgive. Forgiveness is fundemental to Christian belief as is Love...


Love,

Re: Columbine victim teaches forgiveness

you can't move forward if you are stuck in the past. just goes to show you how what we might see as a bad situation is turned around for the glory of god.

"The horror of what I went through in the hospital, I can't even put in words," - M Taylor.

...But, I have managed to gather the strength now to make a book and get alot of publicity.......
