Jeff Cavins unmasks the trap of unforgiveness that
prevents so many from living in the freedom of God’s
peace and halts spiritual progress. He explains with
clarity how forgiveness frees not only the one who is
forgiven, but the forgiver. The importance of this is
shown in Christ’s words: “As you forgive others, so I
will forgive you: Matt. 6:14. Includes free bonus
segment from Anger and Forgiveness by Deacon Dr.
Bob McDonald.
Parishioners Comments:
This brilliantly exposes satan’s tactic to keep us at odds with one
another through unforgiveness and shows our great need to forgive
and be forgiven!....Consuel0, Wichita, KS
Forgiveness is SO needed in our world today. This inspires me to
act on my good intentions to forgive others and myself…..Charley,
