Sometimes, we experience things that are so painful that we feel that there is nowhere to turn. Sometimes, we lose our focus and get caught up in circumstances beyond our control. Sometimes, our ideals take a back seat to the choices we make. "Learning to Forgive" is the result of a poetic journey I took over the last two years. In finding the words, I also found myself, and came to terms with loss, pain, and ultimately, I found the confidence in who I am as a child of God. This book is my tribute to God as thanks and praise for seeing me through that time period. Even though I didn't deserve His love, He never failed to show it to me. Poetry is one of the most unique forms of expressive art, and I am honored to be able to contribute "Learning to Forgive" as my humble addition to this genre. There is something for every one in the pages of this book, as long as you look deep enough and keep your spirit open. It is my hope that I have utilized my talent and portrayed what I feel God has put on my heart to say. Jennifer Ruggiero Morrison has been writing and drawing since before she can remember, and as a result, graduated from LIU Southampton with a Bachelors degree in Graphic Design. The issue of predominance between the written word and sketched picture has always been unresolved, but she uses both talents to glorify the Lord. Jennifer Ruggiero was happily married to Kevin Morrison in June of 2008. She has a son David who is 13, and is expecting her second son, Kyle, any day now.

Building on her signature message of using the mind to master difficult emotions, Joyce Meyer focuses on the most destructive, insidious one of all: anger. It is responsible for broken relationships, sleepless nights, high blood pressure and ulcers. It destroys friendships, marriages and families, not to mention peace of mind. Anger is especially hard to handle for many Christians who have learned from childhood that "good Christians don't get angry." Meyer argues that properly handled, anger is an alert system that something is wrong and needs to be resolved. In her latest book, she delves into the important process of forgiving, explaining its positive impact on the roots, the forms and the results of anger. Why forgive? Joyce explains that forgiving is the only thing that can free one from the terrible turmoil that anger causes to spill over into every part of life. Meyer understands that life will never be fair, but that is not a reason to let anger destroy our well-being and health. This is her guide to navigating that thorny territory and finding true peace.
