For us diehard baseball fans, Ángel Hernández's retirement should not be a moment to revisit his past errors and sneer. Instead, it is a chance to express mercy in a world that, as Pope Francis reminds us, is in dire need of it.

George Santos's behavior following his expulsion from Congress shows that our capability to forgive others can only stretch so far.

We should focus on what today’s reading outlines as a uniter, that being a sanctuary under God.

I hope the lessons I learned in caring for my mother, in forgiving my father, help me to forge a better path forward with my children.
