You deserve to stop suffering because of what other people have done to you.
Have you ever felt stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain, playing offenses over and over in your mind? You know you can't go on like this, but you don't know what to do next. Lysa TerKeurst has wrestled through this journey. But in surprising ways, she's discovered how to let go of bound-up resentment and overcome the resistance to forgiving people who aren't willing to make things right.
With deep empathy, therapeutic insight, and rich Bible teaching coming out of more than 1,000 hours of theological study, Lysa will help you:
- Learn how to move on when the other person refuses to change and never says they're sorry.
- Walk through a step-by-step process to free yourself from the hurt of your past and feel less offended today.
- Discover what the Bible really says about forgiveness and the peace that comes from living it out right now.
- Identify what's stealing trust and vulnerability from your relationships so you can believe there is still good ahead.
- Disempower the triggers hijacking your emotions by embracing the two necessary parts of forgiveness.
Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa:
- I Want to Trust You, but I Don't
- Good Boundaries and Goodbyes
- It's Not Supposed to Be This Way
- Uninvited
- You're Going to Make It

““Simone Veil was a politician in France, she was minister many times. She was about the same age, and had the same journey, as my mother. She was in Auschwitz, and she was a survivor. She did the Death March, and so did my mother. So I was interested in reading her memoir because survivors have many things in common. I was raised by a mother who always told me that to be a woman was lucky; I wasn’t raised by a mother who felt overpowered by men. She always made me feel that it was such a privilege.” -DvF”↗
