Description

You deserve to stop suffering because of what other people have done to you.

Have you ever felt stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain, playing offenses over and over in your mind? You know you can't go on like this, but you don't know what to do next. Lysa TerKeurst has wrestled through this journey. But in surprising ways, she’s discovered how to let go of bound-up resentment and overcome the resistance to forgiving people who aren’t willing to make things right.

With deep empathy, therapeutic insight, and rich Bible teaching coming out of over 1,000 hours of theological study, Lysa will help you:

Learn how to move on when the other person refuses to change and never says they're sorry.

Walk through a step-by-step process to free yourself from the hurt of your past and feel less offended today.

Discover what the Bible really says about forgiveness and the peace that comes from living it out right now.

Identify what's stealing trust and vulnerability from your relationships so you can believe there is still good ahead.

Disempower the triggers hijacking your emotions by embracing the two necessary parts of forgiveness.

You deserve to stop suffering because of what other people have done to you.

Advance Praise

“God never wastes an experience. He is at work even in our darkest hour, when we choose to exchange hurt for healing.

“Forgiveness is a biblical principle we know we should do, but why does it feel so hard to figure out when we've been deeply wounded and hurt? I'm really grateful for Lysa TerKeurst’s courage to walk with us and teach us not just from her own experiences but from her vast theological and therapeutic research on what forgiveness is, what it isn't, and how to realistically live this out. This resource is invaluable, and I pray it brings healing to your life like it has mine.” - Craig Groeschel, Pastor of Life.Church and New York Times Bestselling Author

“Forgiveness lived out can be one of the hardest things we do in life and Lysa has written a breathtakingly beautiful guide for us to maneuver the most painful parts of our pasts. She has walked this hard road herself and what God has done in and through her is nothing short of a miracle! You will find comfort, guidance, and HOPE on every page of this book.” - Jennie Allen, New York Times Bestselling Author of Get Out of Your Head, Founder and Visionary of IF:Gathering
