    This book quite literally healed me from the break up I am going through right now. It altered the negative perspective I have of the person and taught me to look at situations in such a profound way. No matter what you are going through, I promise this book will change your life.

    This book is very insightful. I read this book during a hard time before I made a decision on how to properly forgive someone dear to my life. I still have a lot of work to do but I think that it’s important to keep this book on hand during difficult times when you find it hard to forgive. Of course, I still have a lot of growing to do myself, but this book help me see things from a Godly perspective to open my eyes that It’s important to forget, for God has forgiven us.

  • A READ !!!

    I then shed a million and one tears and I’m on chapter 5. God is truly RIPPING OFF BANDAIDS.. it’s giving “rubbing alcohol & air drying” that pain.. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND

    This book was phenomenal. It touched on every part of me that needed to heal from past abuses and hurts from others. It has helped me to see I need to heal inside to be able to forgive freely. God loves us in our messes and we need to always know this.

    I experienced loss and traumatic events right before and during the ‘20 pandemic. I am a Christian and what I LOVED about this book is how it unpacked some areas I believed I overcame,relatable emotions I experienced. I appreciate additional scriptures I can lean into when I hit a place that threatens to draw out old experiences. Great book I highly recommend it for anyone on a journey to live how God intended his people to live!

    I enjoyed the book. It was a little difficult to get through trying to process it all but it’s definitely worth the read and helps you start to think of forgiveness in a new way, which in turn begins the process of forgiveness.

    This book, for me, was timely, on point, and better than any prescription medication. I needed every single page. She writes as if she is talking to me directly. Could not put it down. This book spoke to me and I thank God for it.
