DO YOU FIND IT HARD TO TRULY FORGIVE OTHERS? Forgiveness is something that most of us struggle with throughout our lifetime, and yet, if not dealt with, it's an issue that will lead to bitterness, depression and deep-seated anger, resulting in unhappy and unfruitful lives. There's an easy kind of forgiveness when someone cuts you off in traffic, or says something unkind, but can you fathom the deeper kind of grace required for abuse at the hands of the parent who is supposed to love and protect you? How do you find the will to forgive physical, mental and verbal abuse at the hands of Christian brothers in a prominent ministry? How do you overcome the emotional scars of a childhood lived in the midst of a bloody and horrific war-zone? In "The Courage to Forgive," you will be inspired by one woman's personal journey through one of the most difficult challenges that humans face-forgiveness. From suffering through the horrors of war in Uganda, through the abuses at the hands of her mother-to a powerful moment of grace and forgiveness that changes her mother's life and her own destiny forever. Follow this incredible woman's story of unending perseverance and determination in the face of unspeakable trials. Her resilience and courage will inspire you, while her faith, and ultimately, her willingness to forgive, will change the way you think about your own life and faith. Joyce L.
