In this episode of Personally Speaking, Msgr. Jim Lisante is joined by Conor McDonald. Conor is an NYPD captain and the son of NYPD hero Detective Steven McDonald. Twenty nine year old Detective McDonald was shot and paralyzed from the neck down in 1986 by a 15 year old teenager who was stealing a bike in Central Park. Despite his injuries, Detective McDonald went on to publicly forgive the teenager. Conor talks about his father’s life, his message of forgiveness, the Catholic faith that gave him the courage to forgive, and what that message means for all of us.
