Never Beyond: Who is Worth a Second Chance?
“You are a monster. I hope you rot in hell.” This was a portion of a letter, written to Casey Anthony in jail.
“The pieces of the bodies of infidels were flying like dust particles. If you would have seen it with your own eyes, you would have been very pleased, and your heart would have been filled with joy,” Osama bin Laden (speaking to his son at a wedding).
“Marilyn Monroe wasn’t even her real name, Charles Manson isn’t his real name, and now, I’m taking that to be my real name. But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best.”–Marilyn Manson
We all have people we would and wouldn’t give a second chance — lines drawn and beliefs formed about who we could forgive.
Right?
People of the Second Chance has just launched the NEVER BEYOND Poster Series: 25 posters representing well known historical, current and fictional characters who are believed to have harmed society. The campaign draws out themes of forgiveness, grace and what a pathway to a second chance looks like.

People of the Second Chance is a scandalous awakening of radical grace in life and leadership. We exist to overthrow judgment, liberate love and live a life that rebels with grace for everyone.
God Loves Teenagers and The ATTIC: Teen Talk Radio are THRILLED to partner with POTSC to break down the walls surrounding judgement and to spread the unconditional love and grace of Jesus Christ to everyone we reach.
Will you join us?
So…let’s go there:
1) What’s the most difficult offense you’ve ever forgiven?
2) Who was the hardest person in your life to forgive?
3) How has someone shown you radical grace?
4) Who can you NOT forgive? (Personal or historical figure)
Seriously, let’s get radical.
Leave your responses.
Let’s start a conversation about the revelation of His RADICAL GRACE!

About Steve Austin
Such a GREAT blog post… I am in need of radical grace. Glad the lines drawn do not draw me out…
Thanks, Ash! I am thankful, more than I can say, for His radical grace! Jesus has broken every chain, isn’t intimidated by my failures, weakness, or mistakes, but LOVES me–no strings attached!! Rock on!
Sometimes it is hardest to forgive yourself.
For me, it is always hardest to forgive myself. Abba has typically forgiven me LONG before I process through my junk myself. His ways are so much better than mine!
