Product Description
Scripture says that offenses will happen. People will let us down and we will let others down, as well. Forgiveness is left up to us to pray about and
then practice. Far from minimizing the hurt of the offense, readers are called to understand that offering forgiveness and letting go of
bitterness is the only way to walk in faithfulness. Drawing on biblical teaching of our call to forgive, Nancy shows the reader that
forgiveness is a choice- and the only pathway to true freedom.
From the Inside Flap
I know just enough about computers, as they say, to be dangerous. But one thing I’ve learned the hard way is the meaning of that little button that’s
spelled D-E-L. That’s right. The delete key. (I’m guessing you know about that one yourself.)
Like you, I can think of times when I was working away at something on my computer and accidentally
pressed the delete button, only to watch all my hard work vanish into thin air, leaving behind nothing but a blank screen of forgotten words.
I wish the delete key was so easy to press in real life.
In many ways, what happens when we trash a computer document is a picture of what takes place when we truly forgive someone who has wronged us.
We clear their record. We wipe out their debt. Isn’t that the way God has forgiven us? All of our sin, deleted. Forever. All because of
Christ’s death on the cross—in our place. Debt canceled.
--Nancy Leigh DeMoss
From the Back Cover
It’s time to get your life back. Perhaps you still remember the moment—the time of day, the look in the other
person’s eye—when you were hurt. When your hopes and dreams were damaged by someone you trusted. And since then your life has been put
on hold, sabotaged by harbored resentment, dreams of revenge, or perhaps indifference and numbness. Or it may
be just the “stuff” of every day life and relationships that has left you with a knot in your stomach and a dull ache in your heart.
There are no magic words or secret formulas for forgiveness. But there are biblical principles that can help you break free from bitterness and
pain. In Choosing Forgiveness, celebrated teacher Nancy Leigh DeMoss delves into God’s word to uncover the promises and expose the
myths of forgiveness. Discover specific strategies for putting God’s grace and mercy into practice—forgiving others as God has forgiven you.
No one says it will be easy. But it could save your life.
Break free. Choose forgiveness.

From AudioFile
Forgiving someone who has hurt you is often difficult. Nancy Leigh DeMoss outlines a pathway to freedom from the prison of bitterness,
anger, and an unforgiving spirit. She believes that most people harbor a seed, if not a forest, of harsh or bitter feelings toward someone
else. Learning to forgive opens the door to joy and peace. Christine Dente narrates in a deliberate and clear style, making the many
illustrations and examples in the book come to life. This is an important book for those who deal with feelings toward people or events
that have caused pain. N.L. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine |
