Forgiving Well



Forgiving Well
Do you forgive easily? Or maybe not at all?
If you have suffered trauma, or extended neglect or injury, or have endured abuse, you were probably taught to forgive immediately. One of the ways abusers maintain power is through cycles of remorse and forgiveness.
Sometimes we jump to forgiveness just to avoid the emotional pain of dealing with the hurt. We don’t want to think about what happened—and we really don’t want to feel what happened—so we just skip the process of healing.
If you’re someone who forgives too quickly, you’ve learned to ignore your needs and repress your feelings, which damages your spiritual health (and makes daily life a whole lot harder).
Or you might think you want to forgive but you just can’t let go of your grip on the pain and anger. You might know that forgiveness will set you free, but you’re not ready for that, yet.
Starting Wednesday, September 17, you can learn how to forgive…and when not to. Join us for Forgiving Well: What It Means, What It Takes, and When To Wait, our 4-week workshop that will help you transform the way you think—and live—forgiveness.
