Forgiveness: a divine tool
God has provided us with a powerful tool that can dramatically affect our lives: forgiveness. In recent years, research has proven the healing power of forgiveness.
Studies found that forgiveness can help lead people to emotional and physical healing, decrease in anxiety, depression, hopelessness, inner emptiness, and an increase in self-esteem.
Forgiveness has the power to bring about individual and interpersonal healing by removing emotional burdens, bringing peace, and in some cases restoring relationships. However, today many Christians do not really understand what forgiveness from the heart is.
In this 8-week series, here are some aspects of forgiveness that will help you:
- The importance and power of forgiveness.
- Role of hurts & painful memories in unforgiveness.
- High cost of unforgiveness.
- Downward spiral of unforgiveness.
- Anger, resentment, bitterness.
- Why forgiveness requires blood.
- Why the blood of Jesus is so powerful.
- Why forgiveness opens a pathway to healing.
- What forgiveness is and is not.
- Difference between forgiveness and reconciliation.
- Why forgiveness must take place in the heart.
- The blessings of forgiveness.
- Three steps in forgiving from the heart.
USA & Euro Groups
To accommodate the different time zones, we offer two groups: USA Group (KMI-304A); Euro Group (KMI-304B).
This interactive seven-week e-group consists of Reading Assignments, Things to Think About, and Supplemental Resources like Case Histories. Using Zoom, you will participate in 7 weekly group sessions, approximately 2 hours each. This gives you a place to hear from Gerald and Judith, ask questions, share your experiences, and pray together.
We will use my book, “I Forgive You: How Heart-Based Forgiveness Sets You Free,” as our text book. You can purchase a print book or an e-book.
