Moments of Hope: The Power to Refuse Hate
May 7, 2026 • Pastor Andy Searles
The story of Nelson Mandela is a powerful reminder that even the deepest injustice doesn’t have the final word. After 27 years imprisoned under apartheid in South Africa, Mandela walked free not with bitterness, but with a vision for reconciliation—choosing unity over revenge and helping heal a divided nation. It’s a story of quiet strength, costly grace, and the kind of leadership that overcomes evil with good. Take a few moments to watch and reflect—you’ll be challenged, encouraged, and reminded that the way we respond to what’s been done to us can change everything.
Be reminded today that forgiveness can be applied anywhere!
