Forgiving and Reconciling List
Price: $15.00 Psychologist and counselor Everett Worthington, the leading Christian researcher
on forgiveness, says that forgiving is a gift we give to others. Offering forgiveness
to others as an altruistic gift is more effective than forgiving 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 five-step model for how to forgive, which he calls
the Pyramid Model to REACH Forgiveness. Worthington also narrowed all his research
into a four-step Bridge to Reconciliation. Throughout the volume, concrete
ways to apply the steps are suggested. Worthington shows the reader how to
get back
on track after temporary setbacks. This book, previously published as Five
Steps to Forgiveness, has been fully revised to make clear the scriptural foundations
of Christian forgiveness. Biblical, authoritative, and pastorally sound, this
guide can help anyone who wants to find the freedom of forgiveness. Book
