Forgiveness- forgiving the unforgivable: Eva Kor

I've been watching the remarkable story of Eva Kor called Forgiving Dr Mengele. She and her twin sister were children in Auschwitz for 9 months before liberation in 1945. Today, Eva lives in Indiana. Eva has chosen the path of forgiveness. She also is very brave in confronting those who choose not to forgive and has stood up for her position with many who strongly disagree with her.

Eva is not a theologian, nor a minister. She is a simple person who went through the horror of the holocaust and wanted to find peace and relief from the painful memories. Eva does not advocate (historical) forgetting. She has found healing through forgiveness. Eva speaks publicly about her life and she has sponsored a holocaust museum called Candles.

I highly recommend the movie about Eva. She also has a book.
