Como Perdonar a Los Demas Y a Nosostros Mismos

Nothing is clearer in the Gospel than Jesus' command to forgive life's hurts and injustices. Following this command of Jesus is surely one of life's greatest challenges, yet choosing not to forgive is to choose to give our offender ongoing control over our emotional and spiritual life. It is a choice to allow our offender to go on hurting us long after he/she may have moved on with their life. In this wholly revised and expanded book, Father Tobin: Clarifies what forgiveness is and is not Names three reasons why we should seek to do the hard work of forgiveness Names ten obstacles to the forgiveness process Offers practical suggestions on how prayer can help us to forgive others, God, the Church, and self Responds to difficult questions like, "Why forgive someone who has no remorse?" "What can I do in an ongoing abusive situation?" The chemistry and grace of the "mystery" of forgiveness deserves this kind of full treatment. If this wisdom could be heard, we would have a very different and wonderful world. - Father Richard Rohr, OFM Center of Action and Contemplation Albuquerque, New Mexico
