Explore what forgiveness means in the context of sexual and
domestic abuse!
Using research, studies, stories, and prayer, Forgiveness and
Abuse: Jewish and Christian Reflections focuses on the views and
opinions of these two prominent religions as well as shares the
wisdom of their traditional teachings. Forgiveness is an essential
concept for many survivors of abuse as well as the perpetrators.
Some believe that urging victims to simply "forgive and forget" in
the face of such harsh realities may not be practical and could
actually endanger the healing process.
Forgiveness and Abuse studies several aspects of the spiritual
influence in forgiving and vindicating abusive crimes, including:
traditional views of forgiveness and repentance using excerpts from
Jewish law a clinical study examining the relationship between
forgiveness and mental health as well as comparing Christian and
Jewish responses to a questionnaire regarding forgiveness abuse of
children and adults by members of the clergy: the roles of the
victims, the abuser, and the church the differences between
forgiveness and reconciliation and whether they are both necessary
so much more! Several of the historical practices of Christianity
and Judaism regarding abuse, its public acknowledgment, and its
forgiveness have been harshly criticized. Forgiveness and Abuse
offers you new insight on the spiritual connections between
religion, abuse, and forgiveness, and brings you hope as religious
leaders unite to better themselves and others. With the events of
recent years weighing on society's shoulders, this collection is
profoundly significant for clergy, counselors, therapists, and
survivors, as well as the perpetratorsthemselves.
