You deserve to stop suffering because of what other people have done to
you.
Have you ever felt stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain, playing
offenses over and over in your mind? You know you can't go on like
this, but you don't know what to do next. Lysa TerKeurst has wrestled

people who aren’t willing to make things right.
With deep empathy, therapeutic insight, and rich Bible teaching coming

change and never says they're sorry.
- Walk through a step-by-step process to free yourself from
the hurt of your past and feel less offended today.
- Discover what the Bible really says about forgiveness and
the peace that comes from living it out right now.
- Identify what's stealing trust and vulnerability from your
relationships so you can believe there is still good ahead.
- Disempower the triggers hijacking your emotions by
embracing the two necessary parts of forgiveness.

From the author of the self-help hit, Adult Children of Emotionally
Immature Parents, this essential guide offers daily, practical ways
to help you heal the invisible wounds caused by immature parents,
nurture self-awareness, trust your emotions, improve relationships,
and stop putting others' needs ahead of your own. If you grew up
with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you
probably still struggle with anger, sadness, resentment, or shame.
As a child, your emotional needs were not met, your feelings were
dismissed, and you likely took on adult levels of responsibility in
an effort to compensate for your parent's behavior. Somewhere along
the way, you lost your sense of self. And without this strong sense
of self, you may feel like your own well-being isn't valuable. In
this compassionate guide-written just for you, not them-you'll find
tips and tools to help you set boundaries with others, honor and
validate your emotions, and thrive in the face of life's
challenges. You'll discover how to protect yourself from hurtful
behavior, stop making excuses for others' limitations, forge
healthier relationships, and feel more confident in your life. Most
importantly, you'll learn how to stop putting others' needs before
your own, and manage daily stressors with competence, clarity, and
optimism. Self-care means honoring and respecting the self. But
when you grow up with emotionally immature parents, you are taught
that setting limits is selfish and uncaring. You are taught to seek
approval instead of authenticity in relationships. And you are
taught that empathy and emotional awareness are liabilities, rather
than assets. But there's another way to go through life-one in
which you can take care of yourself, first and foremost. Let this
book guide you toward a new way of being.
Siya Khumalo het grootgeword in ’n Durbanse township waar net een opruiende
preek ’n skare kon laat toesak op enigeen wat as “anders” beskou is. In Siya se
geval was “anders” om gay te wees. Hy het daarom begin om indringend na seks,
politiek en godsdiens te kyk. Hy ontbloot tegnieke wat vandag deur magsfigure
gebruik word en wys hoe veral gay mense die prooi word van politici en pastore
wat wil ryk word deur die armes en populêre vooroordele uit te buit.
