Those are two idea that I often reflect upon.Grace can be best defined as favor or goodwill as well as mercy, clemency and pardon.Accountability is definable as able to be held responsible and liable for someone or something, answerable and able to explain.
Grace means being set free and being absolved, being treated as if I'd never created a problem , made a mistake or acted foolishly and or recklessly. Accountability is admitting that you are at fault and that you owe a debt- financial, moral, ethical and legal- and that you must pay a price for your actions.
They are seemingly opposites but they are both vital values and our society would be poorer and unmanageable if either disappeared. So, How do you deal with the tension that is created between these two concepts?
