3 Moves in Asking for Forgiveness

What does asking for forgiveness sound like?

  1. “I’m sorry I hurt you.” Period. (No qualifiers.)

  2. “I would like to receive your forgiveness.”

  3. “I want to prove worthy of your trust again.”

When was a time you were on the receiving end of a “good “ apology? What meant the most to you in that? Tell a story of a bad apology. How did it miss the mark? What makes these things so hard to say?
