Generally speaking, the public favors punishment instead of rehabilitation. As professionals in the field, what can we do to foster an environment that encourages forgiveness of offenders? Can we utilize our individual faith in encouraging a shift in this public paradigm? After reading the GCU Statement on the Integration of Faith and Work, explain how Christians feel about forgiveness and restoration. What might a professional with the Christian worldview do to foster an environment that encourages forgiveness and rehabilitation of offenders?
Topic 8 DQ 2
