Book Review of The Gift Of Forgiveness

The Gift Of Forgiveness
Helpful Score: 2


Charles Stanley, one of the most influential spiritual leaders of our day, shares the key to personaly and even world peace. As Stanley points out that no sin is so shockingly evil it blocks God's forgiveness nor so trivial it negates the need for God's mercy, he shares the specifics of how to go about receiving forgiveness.

Stanley emphasizes how the lack of forgiveness can result in separation, bitterness, enmity, indifference, and even depression. Oftentimes, an unforgiving and unforgiven attitude can become forcued grievance and cause us to lose control.

Weaving anecdotes from his own life and from the lives of those he has counseled, Stanley shows you how the peace that comes through forgiveness affects our basic responses to ourselves, other people, and God.
