A 2003 Templeton Foundation Book of Distinction All of us have
suffered painful emotional and relational hurts. God calls us to
forgive those who have hurt us, but that's often easier said than
done. We don't usually know how to forgive others, nor are we
always sure if we have truly forgiven them. Psychologist and
counselor Everett L. Worthington Jr., the leading Christian
researcher on forgiveness, says that forgiving is a gift we give to
others. When we offer forgiveness to others as an altruistic gift,
it is more effective than when we forgive only for our own benefit
in an effort to "get over" the hurt. True forgiveness is
accomplished through a careful process of understanding both the
offense and the offender and taking active steps to forgiveness. In
this insightful and practical book, Worthington provides a wealth
of clinically proven tools and exercises for moving toward
forgiveness. Worthington's expertise comes not only from years of
scientific research but also from the experience of the brutal
murder of his own mother. His convictions were put to the test as
he worked through his conflicting emotions and rage toward the
murderer. He found that the principles of Christian forgiveness
enabled him to forgive even his mother's killer. While forgiveness
is something that we can do on our own, reconciliation involves
another party. Worthington brings both themes together and shows
how we can move beyond forgiveness and cross the bridge to
reconciliation. This book, previously published asFive Steps to
Forgiveness, has been fully revised to make clear the scriptural
foundations of Christian forgiveness. Biblical, authoritative and
pastorally sound, this guide will be of help to anyone who wants to
find the freedom of forgiveness.
