Learn to Forgive, to Break from Bitterness, and to Remove Resentment "I forgive you." These three little words are so simple, so complex, and yet so powerful! Forgiveness gives us permission to let go of recent irritation, bitterness, long−held grudges from minor offenses, and festering hurts that keep us up at night. Relationships filled with resentment and bitterness ultimately perish. Relationships filled with forgiveness ultimately prevail. Learn how you can be an expression of God's grace by forgiving others and find the freedom He intended you to have. June Hunt starts this minibook with a definitions section where she explains each word associated with forgiveness. Learn all forms of forgiveness and the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. Also included in the definitions section are Biblical examples where Jesus forgave sinners and how we can follow his example. Forgiveness isn't based on a feeling, but rather on the fact that God calls us to forgive. The last section titled, "Steps to Solution", gives you practical advice on how to have a heart of forgiveness with: 4 stages of forgivenessForgiveness vs. reconciliationHonesty required for reconciliationA sample prayer to forgive your offender7 ways to sustain a forgiving heartAnd much more! Forgiveness will shed light on the characteristics of an unforgiving heart and the high cost of unforgiveness versus the high reward of forgiveness. Read the captivating story of how Corrie Ten Boom, a woman who survived a Nazi concentration camp, forgave one of her prison guards. Losing her father and sister to that same concentration camp made forgiving this man very hard, for it was only by the grace of God that helped her choose to forgive rather than to be entrapped in bitterness.

Jackie Kendall's childhood was a horror story of abuse. A counselor deemed her family "one of the top-ten most dysfunctional in America." Family members have dealt with this trauma in different ways: Two siblings committed suicide. Some siblings ran wild. When Jackie decided that she wanted to break the mold and be a healthy, loving woman, to forgive or not to forgive was not a question. Simply put: one can't love freely without the developed skill of forgiving freely. In Free Yourself to Love, Jackie shares her own story and struggle to learn this vital life skill. She also reveals the reasons for -- and results of -- refusing to forgive. In passionate, empathetic prose, Jackie urges her readers to exchange free-floating bitterness for the freedom to love and be loved.

In the era of #MeToo and mass incarceration, The Feminist and the Sex Offender makes a powerful feminist case for accountability without punishment and sexual safety and pleasure without injustice. With analytical clarity and narrative force, The Feminist and the Sex Offender contends with two problems that are typically siloed in the era of #MeToo and mass incarceration: sexual and gender violence, on the one hand, and the state’s unjust, ineffective, and soul-destroying response to it on the other. Is it possible to confront the culture of abuse? Is it possible to hold harm-doers accountable without recourse to a criminal justice system that redoubles injuries, fails survivors, and retrenches the conditions that made such abuse possible? Drawing on interviews, extensive research, reportage, and history, The Feminist and the Sex Offender develops an intersectional feminist approach to ending sexual violence. It maps with considerable detail the unjust sex offender regime while highlighting the alternatives we urgently need.

There is a need in both public and professional sectors for a deeper, and more complete understanding of forgiveness, as we are - in the author's own words - "on the threshold of an age of forgiveness and reconciliation." And yet despite continued interest and development in the field, researchers, clinicians, practitioners, and academics have long been without a comprehensive resource on which to base their work. The Handbook of Forgiveness summarizes the state of the science in the research, practice, and teaching of forgiveness. Chapters approach forgiveness and reconciliation from a variety of perspectives, drawing on related work in fields such as biology, personality, social psychology, clinical psychology, developmental psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, and international/political implications. The Handbook provides comprehensive treatments of the topic, integrating theoretical considerations, methodological discussions, and practical interventions strategies in order to appeal to researchers, clinicians, and practitioners. This volume is the most up-to-date and authoritative resource on the understanding of the science of forgiveness. The Handbook of Forgiveness has been chosen as a Book of Distinction by Templeton Press.
