The forgiving life : a pathway to overcoming resentment and creating a legacy of love / Robert D. Enright.
Robert D. Enright has been a pioneer in the field of forgiveness for a generation. Now he leads us into new territory, offering forgiveness not just as a response to a single act but a whole new way of living. Through stories, conversations, theories, and exercises, he boldly charts a new path that dares to offer nothing less than a new way of life. Daring, courageous, and insightful, this book is for all of us who have been hurt at some time and realize we need to move beyond it. Enright sets the challenge before us, and the reward is nothing less than life renewed.
The Forgiving Life is a book to be experienced, not just read. It encourages you to explore the prerequisites of forgiveness, its context and environment, and its demands and rewards. At the end of the book you will have arrived at a new place, a place of greater freedom and vitality. The book is a workshop, a retreat, and hours of therapy all rolled into one.
