Synopsis

FORGIVE HEALING RELATIONSHIPS THROUGH FORGIVENESS ACCEPTING GOD'S GRACE AND GIVING IT TO OTHERS A BOOK SHORT This is a short version of the book with the same name for those who desire a quick read on this important subject. We are involved in many relationships in our homes, churches, schools, workplaces, cities, neighborhoods, and social media. They can provide many blessings and benefits in our lives but when things go wrong they may cause great pain, heartache, and suffering. When a relationship "breaks," how can it be restored? What should be said and done to repair the damage? Will you ever be able to heal from the wounds that might have occurred? The Lords answer is "Yes!" His divine blueprint is healing relationships through forgiveness. This book will assist you in first asking God and then others for forgiveness. You will learn how to forgive yourself and others no matter how great the wrong. You will even discover how to gain the divine power necessary to refresh and restore every aspect of the relationship. Every chapter opens with a typical scenario in which the principle might be applied. A scriptural principle and biblical explanation is given to guide you. Then an ancient portrait is presented which demonstrates how Jesus, Peter, Paul, and others lived out these truths. A modern portrait of a counseling session follows which details how the author was able to apply these biblical principles in a variety of different circumstances. Each chapter concludes with a prayer to the Lord you may use. For a comprehensive read there is an unabridged edition of the same name which can be purchased with a companion workbook. For group studies, there are also three smaller books with accompanying workbooks. If you lead the group study, there is an instructor's manual with additional notes and the workbook questions with suggested answers from the text. This book discusses topics such as confession of sin, repentance of sin, forgiveness by God, self-forgiveness, forgiveness of others, accepting God's forgiveness, asking others for forgiveness, making restitution, accepting the consequences for our actions, confrontation of others who have sinned against us, forgiveness of others as we are forgiven, forgiveness of those forgiven, forgiveness of the lost, keeping no records of wrongs and sins against us, and restoring relationships through action. This can involve spouses in marriage, partners in dating, parents and children, friends, neighbors, co-workers, fellow students, acquaintances, and strangers.
