Forgiveness Embraced

It seems almost unfair that the sins of others could so deeply affect our lives; not only because of the hurt, betrayal or suffering they cause, but also because of the long lasting damage that unforgiveness and bitterness bring long after the perpetrators have forgotten what they did. Forgiveness defines our identity as disciples of Jesus; it sets us free and transforms our lives. Dr. King addresses the subject with both the thoroughness of a scholar and the humanity that comes through experience.Using the life of Joseph, King leads us through the process of healing and redemption that brings freedom and glory to God. Dr. King has a passion for ministry. He takes seriously the calling to be a 'minister of reconciliation' both between man and God, but also between broken people who have hurt one another. Dr. King shows from the life of Joseph that forgiveness is possible and can lead to the glory of God. A worthwhile read.
