Synopsis

Have you ever been hurt by someone else that you needed to forgive? Have you ever hurt someone else and needed to ask their forgiveness? Do you find the forgiveness process difficult? Could unforgiveness be keeping you from peace and joy in your life?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, this book is for you. Forgiveness impacts everyone of us--every relationship, every family, every business, every culture. And the truth is, no one benefits more than us when we forgive, and no one suffers more than us when we don't.

Okay, so you know you're supposed to forgive, but how do you actually do it? Forgive Your Way to Freedom lays out a highly practical, biblical process that helps you walk, step-by-step, through the journey teaching you to:

• Release your power of forgiveness
• Resolve the pain of your past
• Restore your peace in the present
• Reclaim your purpose for the future

Forgiveness has the power to transform lives, restore relationships, heal families, unite businesses, and rebuild nations. Because when we forgive, we are most like God. When you forgive your way to freedom, there is nothing you can't do!

From the Back Cover

Are you carrying unresolved pain?

Maybe you try to push it away. Maybe it consumes you. Maybe you tell yourself, "it's fine," you're "over it," or "it's no big deal." But no matter how you fight it, bitterness holds you back, putting added stress on your body and soul, and weakening your ability to connect with God and others. But forgiveness can help you break free.

Gil Mertz learned the power of forgiveness firsthand when God led him to reconcile with his distant and difficult father. Gil now teaches others the astounding benefits of forgiveness, and how to begin the hard work of actually forgiving. He walks you through each step of the process and helps you identify forgiveness myths, let go of past pain, and rediscover your purpose and hope.

Begin your forgiveness journey today. Your future is waiting.

Each chapter includes:

• Questions for reflection
• suggestions for application
• a forgiveness prayer

PLUS! A 25 Question Forgiveness Evaluation
