All-In-One Scripture- and Science-Driven Forgiveness Advice
Award-winning author and speaker, Debbie Barr, explains the high price we pay to our mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing when we cling to resentment, bitterness, and thoughts of revenge. Backed by science, psychology, and scripture, this all-in-one book will help you equip your empathy, faith, and resilience to rise to the challenges forgiveness may bring.
Writing with compassion and understanding, Barr shares her own experience with forgiveness and stories from others who have made the choice to forgive. She also shows how forgiveness can bring peace of mind, self-respect, and the kind of wellbeing that God wants us to have.
Forgiving others is what God requires of us—and the more atrocious the offense, the more we need his help to do the hard work of forgiveness.

I found this book to be practical and highly motivating! Debbie Barr presents a wealth of information surrounding the varied opportunities life may present which could challenge the choice to forgive. Her stories from real-life situations add interest and further clarify the personal benefits possible for the forgiver. In addition, the excellent bridge to the Christian gospel adds the spiritual dimension and encouragement from which the Holy Spirit may spark within the reader a desire and willingness to make the choice and extend forgiveness, even in the midst of challenges. I highly recommend this book! It has helped me take a look at my own life and consider where I still need to forgive. I look forward to sharing a copy with those the Lord brings across my path who are struggling with forgiveness and need encouragement to move forward in it so they can be set free!
This book is so well organized—all the communication features, stories, truths, examples, diagrams, steps to do. Thanks, Debbie! I love the points about forgiveness and what it does not mean. The section on “when forgiveness is withheld” connected with a deep set of hurts I have inside with a couple of my children taking offense over something years ago and not giving forgiveness to me even when I have persisted in asking.
This empathetic book lists practical steps to understand what forgiveness is (and isn’t). Stories of those who have found freedom will give readers hope of overcoming life’s deepest pains.
