• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Forgiveness in a Cynical Age taps into a rich fountain of ideas from religion and communication to explore how we can forgive others that wrong us.

Using communication as a point of departure, the author challenges readers to take a journey with those who offend us. By accepting the wrongdoer and walking with them, we can forgive them-and it is in forgiving that we are also forgiven.

Steeped in wisdom from the Old and the New Testaments, the book considers questions such as:

How can we define forgiveness?

What do we gain by forgiving others?

How did the people in the Bible and other religions view forgiveness?

We all know that it takes a lot out of us to truly forgive someone, whether it is a small or heinous offense. By reading this book, readers will be better equipped to forgive those who have wronged them, offering wrongdoers the immeasurable love that comes out of forgiveness.
