Victims of wrongdoing are often advised not to harbour resentment or seek revenge. Instead, they are encouraged to forgive and move on. Forgiveness is described as a generous gift that heals the rifts created by wrongdoing. It is the path to happiness, the way to escape bitter cycles of revenge and retribution. Yet in some situations it seems that it would be unwise, even dangerous, to forgive. We might worry that victims who forgive unrepentant perpetrators are letting them off the hook and facilitating further wrongdoing. These moral disputes about when we ought to forgive are complicated by the fact that it is unclear exactly what we are talking about when we use the word 'forgiveness'. The supposed experts make wildly divergent claims about what forgiveness is supposed to be. Some say that forgiveness is purely an emotional change in which the victim's anger and resentment are replaced with goodwill. Others say that forgiveness is primarily a behavioural change in which the victim withholds any further blame and punishment. Still others think that forgiving is actually a mental commitment, or even that it is a performative speech act similar to making a promise or cancelling a debt. In Real Forgiveness, Luke Russell identifies the underlying tensions in our thinking about forgiveness, and shows how these tensions have led to mass confusion. Many of us assume that forgiveness is permissible whenever it is possible, and that forgiveness is available to every victim, and that forgiveness results in peace. But forgiveness cannot be all of these things simultaneously, so we must decide which one of these assumptions we will reject. Russell argues that real forgiveness is powerful and appealing precisely because it removes conflict between victims and wrongdoers. Yet sometimes victims ought to remain in conflict with wrongdoers in order to protect themselves and other vulnerable members of the community, so sometimes is it morally wrong to forgive.

Life happens to all of us. Oftentimes we are ill prepared to deal with the brute-force winds of trouble that can leave us wounded and maimed. Being hurt can gouge the very life out of our lives. It is a true saying that hurt people, hurt people. Humans are daily at risk of hurts being inflicted upon us by parental, sibling, marital, peer, coworker, or church relationships. One of the greatest threats to divine fulfillment and living a fulfilling life is unforgiveness. Its tentacles attach to every area of our lives, choking Gods potential, power, purpose, and promise right out of us. It is an untreated disease in our world and sad to say, so often in the church. Many are our afflictions, but God has promised to deliver us out of them all. He wants to heal our hurts and set us free from unforgiveness. I believe that the door of escape from the things that afflict and cripple our lives is being forgiven and giving forgiveness. If you or someone you know struggles with unforgiveness and bitterness, this book can help. It is a candid conversation, a practical perspective, a challenge for the heart, a refreshing for the soul, and much more.

“If you are struggling with issues of betrayal—or the challenge of whether and how to forgive—here is the most helpful and surprising book you will ever find on the subject.”—Harriet Lerner, Ph.D., author of The Dance of Anger Everyone is struggling to forgive someone: an unfaithful partner, an alcoholic parent, an ungrateful child, a terrorist. This award-winning book provides a radical way for hurt parties to heal themselves—without forgiving, as well as a way for offenders to earn genuine forgiveness. Until now, we’ve been taught that forgiveness is good for us and that good people forgive. Dr. Janis Abrahms Spring, a gifted clinical psychologist and award-winning author of After the Affair, proposes a radical, life-affirming alternative that lets us overcome the corrosive effects of hate and get on with our lives—without forgiving. She also offers a powerful and unconventional model for earning genuine forgiveness—one that asks as much of the offender as it does of the hurt party. Beautifully written and filled with insight, practical advice, and poignant case studies, this bold and healing book offers step-by-step, concrete instructions that help us make peace with others and ourselves, while answering such crucial questions as these: How do I forgive someone who is unremorseful or dead? When is forgiveness cheap? Can I heal myself – without forgiving? How can the offender earn forgiveness? What makes for a good apology? How do we forgive ourselves for hurting another human being?

The Power of True Forgiveness deals with forgiveness based on God’s Word and not man’s perception. Many people have misconstrued the power of forgiveness, but I have learned that there is much power in letting go of hurt rather than holding on to it. I now know that forgiveness is a process that is necessary and beneficial to the offended as much as to the offender. This is my story of dealing with infidelity, letting go of unforgiveness, and accepting a child my husband had outside of our marriage as my own. In this book, I open up about the challenges I faced and how I got to where I am today - a place of true freedom. I lay myself bare so that those who are facing the same challenges can find hope in not only knowing that God can deliver them from unforgiveness but that it is okay to fight for their marriage. “We took an Oath,” on our wedding day and with God, we can forgive each other the mistakes made and move on together with renewed hope. “I was free, healed, and delivered. Now I am completely healed.” Suzette Grant-Walker
